'Setting off alarms': Testimony of Trump shooter eyewitness 'raises serious questions'
A man who claims to have seen the shooter who injured Donald Trump while the former president was speaking at his Pennsylvania rally on Saturday has raised a lot of serious questions about how the attack occurred.
Trump is reportedly fine after the shooting, although he posted on Truth Social that "much bleeding took place." One individual in the crowd was killed, as was the alleged shooter.
CNN Saturday evening replayed a video of a BBC interview in which an individual claims to have seen the shooter several minutes before any shots had been fired. He said he tried to warn those protecting Trump, to no avail.

The animated pro-Trump witness says he saw the shooter in tan cloths with a rifle "crawling" up on the roof. He says he tried to point out the individual to police and Secret Service, but for some reason they didn't have a good vantage point, and his calls were ultimately ignored.
"I'm sitting here pointing at him for two or three minutes," the man says to the BBC. "Secret Service is just looking at us."
CNN's Anderson Cooper said the video raises "a lot of questions" and asked about the thoughts of John Miller, chief law enforcement intelligence analyst for CNN. Miller agreed the testimonial raised "serious questions."
The whole situation, he added, must have been "setting off alarms" for those protecting Trump.
