 The shooter's location was outside the security perimeter, which has led to questions about the size of the perimeter and the efforts made to sweep and secure the American Glass Research building, where the shooter was found on top of the roof. The ability of the shooter to obtain rooftop access in close proximity to the event raises further concerns about the effectiveness of the security measures in place.
