Washington: A major lapse has been observed in the security of former US President Donald Trump. Trump was shot by an attacker, who was immediately killed by a Secret Service sniper. But now questions have been raised about Trump’s security. Many witnesses said that they had informed the Secret Service about Trump’s attacker three to four minutes in advance. According to a BBC report, an eyewitness named Greg Smith said that he saw the attacker crawling up a building just outside the event. According to a Telegraph report, another witness who was present outside the ground said that he and his friends had told the police about the man crawling up the building. He claimed that a few minutes later the gunman was in such a position that he could shoot Trump five times. After this, the Secret Service shot the attacker in the head. Questions are now being raised on the Secret Service as well. It is being asked how this security lapse happened in Trump’s rally. One spectator died in this incident. While another was seriously injured. Greg said, ‘I told the police about the attacker. I was wondering why Trump was still speaking. Why did the Secret Service not take him off the stage? After this, five bullets were fired.
attack could have been prevented
As soon as the shot was fired, the Secret Service surrounded Trump and took him away. Trump’s face was covered in blood. Later it was found that a bullet had hit his ear. The gunman was about 120 meters away from Trump. Questions are being raised as to how a man reached so close to Trump with a rifle? Greg claimed that when he told the police about the attacker, they did nothing. If the police had been alert, the attack could have been avoided.
The police did not do anything?
He said, ‘We saw a man crawling on the building near us. He had a rifle which we could see. We were pointing at him and the police were running here and there on the ground below. We were saying that there is a man with a rifle on the roof and the police did not know what was happening.’ However, he said that perhaps the attacker would not have been seen due to the slope of the roof. He also questions why the secret service was not on the roof. He says that this is 100 percent a security lapse.
