Given that he didn’t appear armed, I think if he actually landed on the grass side they would have used the dogs to take him down rather than risk the snipers hitting someone else.
Wait, Biden left his attack dog there?

You’re grossly underestimating how good the USSS snipers are.
They wouldn’t have hit someone else in that hypothetical. Not from that distance when the only target is running across the White House lawn. They’re shooting from an elevated position so a hypothetical missed round isn’t going to go zinging across into the street or Ellipse.
Wait, wasn’t he trying to get out of the Whitehouse fencing? Was that Baron trying to escape?
I’ve read that this is more effective than a fence…
