The authorities on Wednesday indicated that the suspect was wearing all-black clothing, a black tactical helmet, a black mask covering his face, and tactical gear. It is believed he fired one shot from a nearby roof using a bolt-action high-powered rifle, then jumped from the roof and fled on foot.
The FBI announced on Thursday that investigators had found video footage, palm prints, and footwear impressions in a wooded area near the scene of the crime. They also found several cartridges with pro-transgender and anti-fascist messages engraved on them.
