It is not known who exactly shot him. It was a group of Navy SEALs who attacked his compound in Pakistan.

It was announced on Sunday, May 1, 2011 that Osama bin Laden was killed by US troops on the ground in a 40-minute firefight. It is reported that he was killed by a group of 20-25 Navy SEALs under the direction of the CIA. The Navy SEALs are a part of the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC). The troops arrived in two helicopters. Four men, including Osama, as well as one woman (who was used as a human shield) died in the attack. No American was wounded or killed. Osama bin Laden was killed in the last five to 10 minutes of the siege. Osama was shot once in the head and once in the chest.
