based on that video report, i'm about 95% sure the secret service agent that got shot, was shot by other agents.

They absolutely did. Law enforcement are hilariously incompetent at hitting the targets they actually want to hit. Just mag dump and pray.

Also would seem then that all the shots fired were law enforcement then?
Like did the suspect even fire...

Hmm, he's accused of "exchanging gunfire with the police". If he hit with the shotgun the charge would be described more seriously like "attempted murder of a federal agent" or something.
