Hmmm. Just heard on the radio they think the school shooter was about 75 yards away from the boy when he was shot.

Other security experts also noted al Qaida training exercises involved urban hit- and-run ambushes using pickup trucks and motorcycles. One taped sequence shows a two-man team on a motorcycle attacking a moving motorcade with explosives while another team opens fire from the back of an open van. Other secret al Qaida training consisted of a mock raid on a U.S. embassy in which the American flag is actually burned. The captured documents also included a codebook apparently used by bin Laden to give instructions to his international network by quoting select phrases from the Koran. For example, "Allah-u-Akbar" -- "God is great" -- uttered at a certain point on a televised videotape, could mean "lie low."

Does anyone know how likely it is that this kid will make it after being hit twice assuming it's the same shooter and the same weapon being used? I imagine this poor boy's insides are like scrambled eggs after being shot twice.

Channel 9 TV reporter said the police said this was a .22, not a .223

What can we learn from the distance? (aside from the obvious stuff) Anything not so obvious?

200 feet away....Geez. They must be getting this info from a tipster or the kid.

At last, we might find out whether the guy is in a vehicle or on foot.
