 If the AP fails to specify the sex of the shooter, you
can almost bet the house, the farm and the dog
that it was a she.

I'm suspecting that, too.

When they give the address and type of car is it usually a minority? I read that someplace. Do you think the shooter might be a female and the victim a minority Eagle Scout? Wouldn't that cause a news blackout or something?
