As they made their way to the bridge in order to leave the city "armed Gretna sheriffs (sic) formed a line across the foot of the bridge. Before we were close enough to speak, they began firing their weapons over our heads."
How many were shooting at me? Heck, I had an airliner pass over my friggin head before it slammed into the tallest building in New York City. Gunshots were the least of my worries. Had I not been under the overpass that connected 1 and 7 WTC when the plane hit, I might not be here.
And by the way, you'll note those shots were fired OVERHEAD and not AT OUR HEADS. There's a difference between a warning shot and firing into a crowd -- make the distinction.
