Is it possible to find a target, aim and shoot the target within 11 seconds as the Sniper did to the Trump's assassin?

[healthmyths]

This was the guy who shot Thomas Crooks who shot Trump.
Forty-three seconds after the first shot was fired, a Secret Service agent said the shooter was down. ...

https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/14/politics/what-happened-trump-assassination-attempt/index.html

Three shots can be heard from the same weapon in under three seconds.
Four seconds later, another four shots are heard, followed by a rapid three-shot burst from what sounds like a different firearm. Then, 11 seconds later, there is one more gunshot.

Video shows shooter wasn't stopped for nearly two minutes before shooting Donald Trump

The near-assassination of Donald Trump was a seminal moment in US history. Through multiple live streams, map data, and eyewitness videos, here's how the rally shooting played out over 11 minutes and 9 seconds.

Now my question which I've not heard the answer to is this:
Seconds

1. 1 to 3 seconds 3 shots heard
2. 4 seconds 4 more shots by a different firearm
3. 11 seconds 1 more shot.

Was the Secret service sniper watching the shooter and able to after 15 seconds did the following:
Heard the shots.
Saw in seconds 5 to 11 see the shooter and kill the shooter.

So my question: Is it possible for a seasoned, sniper like the guy who shot Crooks to flip his head to the direction of the shots,
identify the shooter and then seconds 5 through the 11 seconds set up , target and shoot?
Is that possible?

He was seen scouring the area before the rally even started. So he was able to locate where he would take the shot(s). The question would be:

How was he even allowed to get into the building before getting up on the roof?

Just found this video that was released by FBI of Crooks shooting.

yes,,

Many of the military veterans here had the ability to locate, appropriate, and shoot straight within three to four seconds of looking. It depends on how much practice this shooter had. Eleven seconds is a lifetime.

When I was in Basic Training, you had about 5 seconds to locate and kill the pop-up targets. They could be anywhere from 50 and 350 yards. And we were NOT skilled marksmen.

He had crooks in his sights prior to the shots fired, which leads to other questions.

Training. The SWAT snipers likely had every possible firing position dialed in before the rally even started.

Probably true, which leads to "how did he pull that off?"

Are the SS snipers that poorly trained.

 

[healthmyths]

I agree! For example if was in his sights why not notify other law officers?

 

[healthmyths]

Snipers noticed Crooks 90 minutes before Trump shooting​

It wasn't training. I noticed two SWAT snipers but no spotters.
