Hinckley watched as the motorcade pulled up to a canopy VIP entrance. Hinckley now stood less than ninety feet from the entrance. It was a good spot to fire at the President from close range. Nearby were ABC newsmen including Sam Donaldson. Also standing around were several Secret Service agents.
An agent opened the right rear door of the vehicle. Reagan quickly steps out and waves to the crowd. At that moment, Hinckley had the opportunity to shoot. He hesitates. He decides to wait until Reagan comes back outside.
