I don't think there is anything to explain. Looks like a perfectly normal video of a fucked up situation. The voices seem to "match" fine to me. It's clearly the woman's hand. She is pointing and saying "He's right there, flat on the roof!"
Man: There he is right there. Finger comes in at 14 seconds. Woman: where?
When they are saying laying flat on the roof nobody is pointing.
The also seem astonishingly blase at that moment.
Another weird thing is Right after this the video pans away to the right and to the ground. Doesn't seem like he was focusing on the roof. the man then says
"what is happening" 25 seconds in
That audio seems more genuine to me and it seems a bit odd. If the guy actually had already seen the guy on the roof in the first 9 seconds of the video, he would then zoom away and ask that question.
Somebody answers that question but I can't hear what she says.
Then nothing.
No raises a voice until like 35 seconds in. Again, they are very calm at first.
There's a weird judder around 41 seconds in
Almost seems like an edit but I can't be sure.
The other thing that feels off to me is the exact audio that seems suspect to me is giving you information you cannot get from the video itself. There he is. He's on the roof laying down.
This feels like someone was filming caught people getting concerned like 35-40 seconds into the video and later when he reviewed the video realized he had footage of the shooter
And went back and made edits to the video Including doctoring the audio at the beginning to make it go viral.
I could majorly wrong, but there's definitely things odd about this. I would love to see if this person goes to the cops or comes forward.
But I have worked with film and video going back to the pre digital days. And the way this appears jumped out at me immediately as hinky. I can't recreate that frame unless I have my arm fully extended away from body and then point with my other hand. If I did it normally, you see way more of my hand and It comes in from the side of the frame. The only way to get your fingertip coming in from the bottom of the frame is to not point but carefully place your fingertip under your phone. Try it, see if I'm crazy.
The other thing that jumps out at me is the voices themselves.
There seems like there's authentic audio later in the video. But early in the video you have people who do not sound like they are out of political rally and just notice someone on the roof. I would immediately associate that with danger. They do not act scared. They're not excited. What they sound like is someone describing the video they are watching. Not someone in the scene reacting to their environment.
The woman's voice when she said he's laying on the roof is super super casual.
OK.
That could be an explanation that it's not the videographer's finger.
However, it's dead center on the body frame line.
Is he filming over her head and she's really short? Trying to figure out how they would have to be positioned for this to actually happen.
The other thing for me is the voices at the beginning do not match what's in the frame.
I don't have time to rabbit hole this tonight but I'm going to take another look

The finger comes up when the man is speaking

That? You can't imagine his own finger got into the shot for a split second? I think you are overthinking this.
I can certainly imagine it.
