17. It seems the agent may have been hit by friendly fire.

The alleged assassin was running pretty fast in the video clip, and then agent guns were out and 5 shots were fired. The man from California was said to have dropped to the floor at that point, but was not hit. So I don't see how he even had an opportunity to fire any of his weapons.
