The clip shows the exact moment when a police officer spots the armed individual on a rooftop, just seconds before he attempted to shoot the former president.
Another officer urges him to climb the building, but he quickly falls.
According to reports, 39 seconds later, Crooks opened fire at the rally, as reported by Euronews.
The shots grazed the former president’s ear, killed volunteer firefighter and father of two, Corey Comperatore, and injured two other attendees.
