Wind saved Trump from a bullet: Pennsylvania shooter's failed assassination attempt
Donald Trump assassination attempt: 20-year-old Pennsylvania shooter missed due to wind. Bild claims that the wind deflected the bullet that could have killed Trump. The snipers are sure that the strongest wind was needed for such an effect.
▪️ The perpetrator was a skilled marksman and well-versed in guns. Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, of Pennsylvania, was on a rooftop about 135 feet away from Trump.
▪️ He fired three shots at the presidential candidate and then into his audience during his speech.
▪️ Bild claims that if it weren't for the wind, Trump would have been killed. However, snipers we know are convinced that it takes the strongest wind to deflect a bullet at that distance.
▪️ Earlier media reported that Trump was saved by turning his head at the moment of the shot.
