New bombshell video of Trump assassination attempt shows strange figure running across rooftop minutes before shots rang out

Chilling video made by one of the victims of the attack donald trump shows a shadowy figure running across a rooftop moments before the former president was shot.

The disturbing clip was made by James Copenhaver who, moments later, was seriously injured in the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13.

In footage, obtained by Fox Digital, the figure appears briefly on a rooftop overlooking where Trump was being cheered by his rally crowd.

He appears to look toward Trump before running further along the roof. At the same time, Trump turns and almost looks directly at his would-be assassin before running away.

Three minutes after the video of the bomb was recorded, 20-year-old Thomas Crooks fired a hail of eight bullets, hitting both Trump and Copenhaver.

Heroic firefighter Corey Comperatore, 50, died while trying to protect his family during the attack.

Copenhaver, 74, suffered “life-altering injuries” but has recently been released from hospital.

He is still recovering at a rehabilitation center, according to his lawyer, who said he was hit in the arm and abdomen.

“He almost saw or heard something go past him, which we assume was a bullet,” said attorney Joseph Feldman.

“He felt it in his arm, and he looked at his arm … and he felt pain initially, but he didn't even realize he'd been shot a second time at the time. It could have been a shock.

David Dutch, 57, was the fourth person injured and was reportedly shot twice and has undergone two surgeries.

Crooks was killed by a Secret Service sniper, but significant questions remain about the security breaches that allowed him to carry out the attack.

The video was recorded by James Copenhaver, a rally attendee in Butler, Pennsylvania, who was seriously injured in the assassination attempt.

The lone gunman was identified as a suspicious person before the shooting and was seen walking around the scene in the hours before.
