00:02FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the House Judiciary Committee and revealed

00:07new details about the shooter who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump.

00:11Wray said the shooter, Thomas Crooks, may have used a firearm with a collapsible stock,

00:16making it easier to conceal as he carried out surveillance at the rally site in the

00:19days leading up to the attack.

00:21Crooks surveyed the rally site extensively and operated a drone there prior to launching

00:26an attack.

00:27Witnesses saw Crooks on the roof of a nearby building, and he began firing within seconds

00:31of being spotted by a law enforcement officer on the ground.
