Was it a hacker?

So I was in a server with about 30 people in it and prone on a hill slightly in a bush. I see a guy running into town (Cherno) and get graphical errors, so I do a flush. While my screen is black I hear about 3 footsteps then what sounds like a gatling gun that would be mounted on a helicopter. Must have been ~50-100 bullets in about one second.

FYI, it was not the guy running away from me into town, he was a good 200meters off and running away from me with a patrol pack.

The main reason I believe its a hacker is the gun noise of course. But I was wondering if the graphical flush could have cause this kind of bug and this player just some how stumbled upon me in that 5 seconds of blindness. I do not think it was a sound bug/issue as the footsteps sounded normal.

What do you guys think?

Was it? Anyone have any thoughts?

Sounds like a hacker.

I was in a tower above Cherno with my AS50 when I heard crunching sounds, then a laugh over my speakers, then I was dead.

I have literally watched them come up out of the ground and start shooting at me. Sometimes they speak to me before I die, sometimes not.

Sounds like someone hunting snipers with a m249saw,mk 48, or m240.. I do this on occasion.

^ this. My Mk48 instills horror in my victims, no surprise they think I am hacking.

If it sounded like this:
