I think people are discounting how dang hard it is to get up on top of a water tower.
I think, if there is a 2nd assassin, they were inside the glass building. . . I also have a hard time believing 2 snipers missed their target - as the unknown assassin would likely be a highly trained sniper. I suppose it's possible.
I do think we heard shots from at least 3 different guns.
Sorry been walk about so just now reading.
1) I agree it's not easy but there is still a base...if your not in the tower there should be someone on the ground there. Supposedly no one was posted there. At least that would clear it up. My point was not well made though, usually you have an overwatch position, that would either be someone posted on this tower or other high building, a drone, or a helicopter. We had none of those supposedly.
2) They didn't miss their target. The shot that hit trumps ear would have gone right in his ear canal, and is exactly where a professional would place his kill shot. The bullet was where it was supposed to be and trumps turn in 0.03 seconds are what saved his life. You can account for wind as a sniper, it's hard to account for head movement no matter how good you are. No matter how well placed my shot if my target moves I'm going to miss the target even if my shot goes exactly where intended. Things seldom go as planned....supposedly after crowd had pointed at shooter a policemen went up to eyeball him when he turned and pointed gun on policeman he went back down, and now the shots were rushed....maybe not according to plan. If the Crooks was rushed then it would follow that the professional (assuming they exist) was also rushed.
3) First shots sound unsupressed, Second rapid group sounds supressed (wether from a surpressor or just masked from inside a building), final kill shot of counter sniper sounds unsurpressed. To me and my untrained ear, who has just spent a decent amount of time at the range...I hear 3 diff weapons.
