The Justice Department on Thursday released the clearest footage yet of White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting suspect Cole Allen charging the Washington Hilton ballroom security checkpoint as part of the alleged assasination attempt against President Trump.
The video, shared on social media by DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro, appears to show that Allen was armed with a rifle during his mad dash.
Moments before he charged, the suspect appeared to enter a doorway near where several TSA and Secret Service agents were gathered and two magnetometers had been set up.
Allen emerged from the doorway seconds later in a full sprint and fired at security personnel, according to authorities.
