Shots may have been fired up since he was onstage and came from the left. If shooter was elevated or shooting head on the crowd would have been hit.

From fox:

Pennsylvania congressman provides eyewitness account to security incident

Rep. Dan Meuser, R-Pa., was in attendance in the front row at Trump's rally in Butler and provided an eyewitness account of the security incident.

Meuser said he was siting with Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., and GOP Senate candidate Dave McCormick in the front near Trump at the rally.

He told Fox News Digital he heard what sounded like 8-10 "shots." He said it appeared multiple people in the crowd may have been hit and were down.

Does the movie “Snake Eyes” with Nicolas Cage and Gary Sinise come to mind? Inside job gone bad…..

Shooter dead so story ends with a corpse…..

But I’m just a peckerwood that likes guns…to quote a similar movie

Top of his ear looks shot off.

Into the bystanders

Shots were still being fired after Trump ducked down. Hopefully those were at the shooter

The shot had to come from his right, the one that hit his ear. They act like they have no idea where it came from.

You have enough politicians and media say someone is a threat to democracy idiots will eventually believe them.

Newsmax says someone died

Is that a hole in his jacket under his arm?

The Secret Service ripped open his clothes and it looked like he was wearing a vest.

Shooter so dead as well as a bystander with another seriously wounded

Thanks for that. Other shots had to be return fire.

Bongino has said for a long time his friends still in the SS said the threat level is insane.

Best I can tell. Shooter is dead. A Bystander dead. Another bystander serious. Trump is not serious.

People are saying the guy is Mark Violets, have no idea how that info would be out so quick.

Speculation here, but I have to think there’s Secret Service rifle teams that are there to look for and respond to assassination attempts. I wonder if the last shots were the shooter meeting his end.

Prayers for the bystander's family. It's amazing more aren't hurt. Pray for our country.

Developing story in the midst of chaos. No telling what’s real or false at this moment. Video can be deceptive with shots because of echoes.

They definitely do deploy counter sniper teams.

This only helps his campaign. Way to go, dims.

Who is the real threat to democracy? Even though we’re a Constitutional Republic and not a Democracy.
