Trump Kill Bid: How a Series of Security Lapses, Failures Led to Near Fatal Shooting | Details

Former President Donald Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Thomas Crooks fired five shots from an AR-15 rifle from a 120-yard distance. The incident highlighted critical security lapses compared to the SPG protocols for India's PM Modi, which include limited exposure and thorough sweeps. Footage revealed disorganised Secret Service personnel, insufficient Bullet-resistant shields, and Sniper protection.
