The twitter journalist stated "It seems Ashli Babbitt was shot by Pence's security detail." We do not know if it was a member of his detail and she provided nothing I could see to back up her statement. It may have been one of his security detail or it may not have. We should not assume it was based on the twitter posts alone.
In addition, it seems that the only people shot were those that attempted to go past the closed and barricaded doors. I don't know the rules of engagement for officers on federal property protecting federal employees. From what I could tell, the guy with the gun was not hidden. He was very close to the door with his gun pointed at the doorway. He moves out a bit then moves out again and fires. I would find it difficult to believe someone climbing through the window would not have had the opportunity to see the guy with the gun pointed at them or in their general direction. It would not be a leap to conclude the guy's intention was to keep people from crossing through the barricade. I believe, given what I've seen so far, I would be quite hesitant to be the first person to attempt to breach the barricaded area for the above reasons.
