It kind of does look like from the footage of one of the secret service snipers that the would-be assassin was discovered just seconds before the shots were fired. You could see him looking in that direction then suddenly aim his rifle.
It makes me think that the would-be assassin realized he had been spotted and was forced to take a shot before he was perfectly ready.
If that bowser junior looking guy spotted him and was trying to warn people, the chances are others realized it to and the assassin noticed the attention.
