Timeline of Trump Assassination Attempt

We have noticed various timelines and narratives reported by media outlets that conflict with each other and were proven not accurate later.

Whistleblowers within the Secret Service have revealed:

● Detection canines were not used to monitor entry and detect threats as is the usual protocol.

● Individuals without proper designations were able to gain access to backstage areas.

● Department personnel did not appropriately police the security buffer around the podium.

● Department personnel were not stationed at regular intervals around the event security perimeter. 

Following is the most accurate timeline of July 13, 2024 in Butler, Pennsylvania at the attempted assassination of Donald J. Trump. Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20 was the alleged individual who shot at Trump.

1:25 PM (Approximate): Crooks parked, but left an Alpha Wireless Firing System in his car, possibly to use as an explosion diversion he could set off with a remote detonator he carried with him.

1:111:: 11Crooks was flagged at a security screening not long after doors/gates opened at 1:00 p.m. He was found with a magnetometer and carrying a range finder, tools often used by long-distance shooters.

5:07 PM: People attending the rally began noticing Crooks (as identified later by his clothes and appearance) walking around the grounds of the rally near the building he would later be on the roof of. Some of them notified police and others.

5:15 PM: Crooks was spotted around the American Glass Research (AGR) complex by a law enforcement officer.

5:41 PM: Another law enforcement officer called in to authorities to report a suspicious person was scoping the area and grounds of the rally. That officer took a photo of Crooks on the ground. An additional officer began checking the grounds of the rally but did not see Crooks or any other suspicious activity.

5:43 PM: A Beaver County Emergency Services Unit (ESU) team member stationed inside the AGR complex noticed Crooks scoping out a roof near the rally and called it in. The ESU team member also took a photo of Crooks.

5:59 PM: Approximately 11 to 12 minutes before the attempted assassination, the ESU team member sent the photo he took of Crooks to command, warning them to be on the lookout for him.

6:01 PM: That same ESU team member spots Crooks returning to the AGR complex with a backpack and sends more warnings to command. At this point Crooks is still on the ground.

6:02 PM: Then, this ESU team member sees Crooks sit down, check his phone, and pulls out a range finder to see how far he is from where Trump will be speaking at the rally podium. The team member, for the third time, notified command about what he saw Crooks doing.

6:03 p.m.: Trump takes the stage and greets the crowd as the Lee Greenwood song “God Bless the USA” plays.

6:04 PM: Most of the crowd were now focused on Trump as he walked up on the stage. Crooks climbs up a ladder (that had not been previously noticed by individuals in the crowd or law enforcement officers at the AGR complex).

6:05 PM:  The song ends, and Trump begins speaking.

Eyewitnesses warn nearby law enforcement that Crooks is on the roof of the complex. Butler Township officers converge on the complex.

Two officers attempt to follow Crooks up the roof but retreat when they notice he is armed with a rifle. Crooks points the rifle at one of the officers, who then falls to the ground in an attempt to take cover.

Both officers radio in to a “blanket tactical channel” that a man is on the roof of the AGR complex with a rifle just feet from where Trump is speaking.

About one minute before the attempted assassination, eyewitnesses alert police officers yet again that they can see a man on the roof of the AGR complex with what appeared to be a rifle.

6:10 PM: Trump began describing a chart showing statistics on immigration and turned his head to look at it while saying, “Take a look at that chart. Take a look at the arrow on the bottom.”

Chart Trump was referring to was still up the following day.

He continued, calling out Biden administration’s immigration policy, saying, “And then the worst president in the history of our country took over and look what happened to our country.”

Trump was cut off when he said, “Probably 20 million people,” by the loud popping sounds of shots being fired and a rally attendee yelling, “He’s got a gun!”

6:11 PM: Crooks fires his first shot at Trump, with seven more to follow rapidly.  After his first shot, in an attempt to assassinate the former president, Crooks is able to fire seven more shots at Trump and into the rally crowd.

● Trump suddenly clutched his right ear and ducked down behind the podium.

● Three Secret Service agents swarmed to cover Trump, yelling, “Get down!”

● Blood was smeared across Trump’s face and onto his hand.

6:12 PM: While the shots are being fired, Pennsylvania State Police rush the AGR complex building and clear it from inside.

● Corey Comperatore, 50, of Sarver, Pennsylvania, who was sitting behind Trump, was killed, and two others were critically injured.

● Police identified 57-year-old David Dutch, of New Kensington, Pennsylvania, and 74 year-old James Copenhaver, of Moon Township, Pennsylvania, as the injured shooting victims, the following day.

Within 16 seconds, after Crooks fired the eight shots at Trump and the rally crowd, two shots are fired at Crooks.

One was from a member of the Secret Service who had been previously seen pointing an automatic rifle attached to a tripod on a nearby roof at him.

6:13 PM: Three Secret Service agents began hovering over and around Trump to shield him.

They helped him get back on his feet and ushered him to the protected SUV.

6:14 PM: Trump’s black SUV departs Butler Farms and takes him to the nearest hospital, approximately 11 miles away.

6:15 PM: Police, Secret Service, emergency operations and other law enforcement begin attending to the injured, securing evidence, handling crowd control and safety.

6:27 PM: Trump arrives at Butler Memorial Hospital.

6:42 PM: Secret Service issues a statement indicating Trump “is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility.”

8:42 PM: Trump releases a statement on his Truth Social platform, confirming he was shot “with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear.”

“I knew immediately that something was wrong in that I heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin. Much bleeding took place, so I realized then what was happening,” he said.

11:02 PM:  Trump was escorted to his plane in Pittsburgh by Pennsylvania State Police and Secret Service. 

11:12PM:  Trump’s plane departed Pittsburgh and flew to Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey.

  1. Thanks Jack & Dodie. What a tragedy that could-should have been prevented. Thankful that President Trump is OK, but so sad that someone died and others hurt. Listening today to the Director of the Secret Service dodge answers to questions – she makes me sick! She definitely needs to go!
