The children were returning from lunch, marching in line and singing songs when the bullets started to fly.
A 7-year-old boy was shot in the right shoulder. An 8-year-old was struck in the right ankle. A counselor was hit in his left thigh but managed to usher the group of about 30 children to safety, D.C. police said. The shooting victims were expected to survive.
The children and their counselor were apparently caught in a spray of bullets fired by one man at another for reasons that aren't clear, police said. The gunman fired at the second man as he ran toward the children in the 1900 block of Savannah Street SE, police said.
Police were looking for a black male wearing a white T-shirt, possibly with a ponytail. ...
[Hey, clo ... do you think it is possible this black male was trying to carry out some really, really late-term abortions? B.]
