These documents are expected to be reviewed and included in a final report set for release this December.<\/p>\n<p>Local authorities have previously disputed claims made by former Secret Service leadership regarding the adequacy of training and preparation, including accountability for securing the rally\u2019s perimeter from which the gunman fired.<\/p>\n<p>The investigation also uncovered that the Secret Service borrowed members of Trump\u2019s detail from other federal agencies, with some receiving only brief webinar training before being deployed in the field.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly before 20-year-old gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks began firing at Trump, grazing his right ear, a breakdown in communication between the Secret Service and other agencies caused \u201ccritical pieces of information \u2026 [to move] slowly due to fragmented lines of communication and unclear chains of command on July 13,\u201d and the Secret Service \u201cdid not effectively verify responsibilities were understood and being executed,\u201d the report says.<\/p>\n<p>Also, there was no joint meeting between the Secret Service and its state and federal partnering agencies that day.<\/p>\n<p>The communication breakdown also hindered agents\u2019 ability to share crucial information about the shooter, according to the report. One example of the poor communication involved the initial identification of a suspicious individual, which was not communicated to the agency\u2019s command post until 5:51 p.m.\u2014almost an hour after it was first reported.<\/p>\n<p>Three local officers had first observed Crooks\u2019s unusual behavior, including the use of a rangefinder, around 5 p.m. that day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese observations were made independently, and based upon each officer\u2019s experience, Crooks\u2019s behavior and manner were suspicious,\u201d the House report said.<\/p>\n<p>An officer from the Butler Township Police Department, identified as witness four in the report, testified that he was one of the first to notice a long gun in Crooks\u2019s possession. Unfortunately, that critical information did not reach the USSS counter-snipers who were engaged at the scene.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\">Advertisement<\/p>\n<div id=\"ld-12578241793956198-359\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Crooks was able to fire more than eight rounds before he was shot and killed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom there, I just start yelling out to the guys that are there, I yell on the radio right away.
