A sabot round would leave just a small hole there would be none of the "peppering" that is evident on the picture posted.

I'm actually surprised that there isn't more "peppering" from parts of the round being stripped of and from the energy dissipated as the round penetrated the concrete.

If they used this round, it proves they made a conscious effort to minimize casualties while attempting to take out a possible threat.
