Remember how, only moments earlier he says, "Maybe I can help you...", while Michael visits him in his bedroom. Upon hearing the shots and realizing they were aimed at his parents, Anthony then decided this was his big chance to prove himself. So he ran to his closet, grabbed the rifle Neri had secretely given him for his birthday, blew the culprits away from his own window, then slipped innocently back under the covers. Notice how withdrawn Anthony appears throughout the remainder of the film. He is obviously suffering from guilt at having murdered for the first time, but also a little dejected, because here he's made his bones and can't tell anyone about it!!
This also helps to explains how, in GFIII the adult Anthony wants no part of the Corleone Family business, and is drawn instead toward a career in the Fine Arts.

I am laughing because everybody KNOWS who did it!!!
It was obviously Kay. I think that she arranged it all, even to have Fredo set up, then killed the people who fired because they did it while she was in the room and that was not how it was meant to be done.
Anthony? No. He DID help Roth though, convincing Fredo into...stuff, then fooling Mike so he has Fredo killed and not Kay or Anthony.
Kay had the miscarriage because the baby she was having had 2 penises and she didn't want that...
Something like that!
