The footage was obtained from the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit.

From Fox News:

“Beaver County sniper seen and sent the pictures out. This is him,” one law enforcement officer says.

“Rifle’s right there, obviously,” another confirms, as he points at the weapon.

The first law enforcement officer, whose body camera was recording, said the sniper who spotted Crooks was still in a building nearby, showing where the sniper was located.

“That’s the sniper who sent the original pictures and seen him come from the bike and then set the bag back down and then lost sight of him,” the officer said. “He’s the one who sent the pictures out. I don’t know if you got the same ones I did….”

“I think I did, yeah,” the man who appears to be a Secret Service agent replied. “He’s got his glasses on….”

The man who appears to be a Secret Service agent asked, “And we have somebody detained, correct?”

“That I don’t know,” the officer replied.

Another officer said, “There were two people detained on this side.”

“Our guy who was just up here told me that there’s a guy detained who is the owner of the bike. And I said, ‘no, no, that’s the owner of the bike,” the agent said, appearing to point to Crooks’ body.

“We’ve been up here so we wouldn’t know that information,” an officer said.
