Amazing no-one was killed.

The only decent news coming from this case is that the injuries don't seem to be very serious, which makes me wonder about the shooter.
Okay, so I've never shot a real gun, have no desire to, and I recognize that making an accurate shot is probably a whole lot harder than I can imagine.
I do wish a speedy recovery to all.
