Sharpshooter shot running medical student in the head?

[Time]

That's when one of the men reportedly got out of the car and shot her in the head as she ran, killing her on the spot.

Sad that we have depraved lunatics like this among us.

We ALL need to understand this. I was advised once that if accosted and asked for my wallet, to not just HAND it over, but to TOSS it in the direction of the robber but some distance away and then run if you feel that you might be further attacked or kidnapped. The person giving the advice said that typically the perp would go after the wallet before he went after you.

This was when "they" were kidnapping like it was going out of style (in T&T)... but you never know what the correct thing to do is.

My condolences to the family.

Yes but a running head shot is too difficult ... may be not true

[Peter R]

What may not be true? that she was shot while running? or that she was shot? what's another theory? just asking... If she was shot by the gunman whether running or standing still, does it make a difference ?

... Yes, it make a difference because if the witness is lying then they probably know the gunman.

Whoa...whoa.... who is that witness?

[Rudi]

I guess the other young lady who was walking with her who didn't get killed.

[Gamma]

No she wasn't ...

[Rudi]

She wasn't a witness? then I misunderstood the story. I thought I read that the two young ladies were walking and a car pulled up and the robbers in the car demanded their belongings. One lady gave up her belongings the other lady ran and one of the occupants got out and shot the runner in the head. The lady who didn't run her life was spared. Was that not the story?

[Gamma]

No she didn't get shot. If she is the witness why would she make up a story?

[Rudi]

Didn't think she did. Just wanted to confirm that I read the story correctly. The shottas on the board seem to be saying that it is very difficult to shoot someone running in the head so they seem to be questioning the veracity of the story. Is this doubt getting any traction in JA?

[Gamma]

Actually there are 2. The most oft repeated one is that he got out chased her and shot her. The other suggests that he did not get out of the car.
