WATCH: New Video of Sniper Thomas Crooks Walking Around at Butler Rally Before Shooting President Trump Surfaces
A new video of Thomas Crooks walking around the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13 approximately 2 hours before the assassination attempt against Trump has surfaced.
A vendor posted video of Thomas Crooks walking outside the security perimeter at 4:26 pm – about two hours before he climbed on a roof and took 8 shots at Trump and rallygoers at 6:12 pm.

@ironcladusa Terrifying moment… looking back at my videos from the PA Butler Trump rally on 7/13/24. We were there just trying to sell our patriotic hats from my small business. Captured a video of Thomas Matthew Crooks at 4:26pm, just before the assassination attempt occurred. Interesting he was wearing shorts instead of pants, which he later had on, and he has no bags with him at this moment. @Fox News @Donaldtrumpjr @TuckerCarlsonDaily @Candace Owens @Turning Point USA @CBS @nbcnews @ABC News #Trump2024 #TrumpRally #BreakingNews #NewsAlert #WitnessVideo #PAButler #MustSee #NewFootage #RealDonaldTrump ♬ Creepy and simple horror background music(1070744) – howlingindicator
Here is a map of where Crooks likely walked around near the vendors:
Jack, it looks like this video was taken outside the secured area somewhere in the red oval.

Crooks was spotted walking around merchandise row shortly after he flew a drone over the fairgrounds between 3:50 and 4:05 pm.
That area, merchandise row and the adjacent grass parking lots, is the general area where my photo of what appears to be a drone was flown in the time frame law enforcement says Crooks flew his drone:https://t.co/MfGyMAScfI

TGP reporter Kristinn Taylor took a photo of Crooks’ drone at 3:54 pm in the general area of merchandise row and the adjacent grass parking lots.
Thomas Crooks was able to climb on top of a roof next to Trump’s Butler, Pennsylvania rally and put Trump in his scope.
A bullet grazed President Trump’s ear during his Pennsylvania rally. One rallygoer was fatally struck in the head. Two other rally attendees were wounded, one critically.

Bodycam footage released earlier this month shows a police officer being hoisted onto the roof to confront would-be assassin Thomas Crooks just two minutes before he opened fire on Trump and rallygoers.
The bodycam footage, obtained by Fox News, shows a Butler Township police officer being hoisted onto the roof at 6:10 ET, just minutes before the shooting.
The officer stares down the barrel of Crooks’ shotgun and retreats.
The Butler Township officer then sprints away warning other officers of the gunman perched in the roof.
The video doesn’t have any sound until the 1:38 mark.
“F*cking this close, bro. Dude, he turned around on me,” the officer who was hoisted on the roof said.

Even after the shots were fired, it took police five minutes to reach Thomas Crooks.
“Before you motherf*ckers came up here, I popped my head up there like an idiot by myself, dude,” the police officer who was hoisted onto the roof said. “Then he turned around and I f*cking dropped, and I started f*cking, I was calling out, ‘Bro, f*cking on top of the roof.’ F*cking, we’re not on the same frequency?”
