More gubs for the day, alas

Josh Voorhees has a Slate article about the latest shooting:
The latest scene of a school shooting: Pittsburgh, ennsylvaniaa. Here's The Associated Press with the broad strokes of what we know:
School officials say three students were shot outside a Pittsburgh high school, and police are searching for a gunman.
Pittsburgh school district spokeswoman Ebony Pugh says the students were shot outside Brashear High School as they walked to a vehicle they'd all taken to school earlier in the day. She says their injuries appear to be non-life-threatening. Two were grazed in the head and one was shot in both the foot and arm. It's not clear who shot them.
There have been scattered reports that police may be looking for as many as three gunman, although that detail remains unconfirmed. (And, I'll note, early reports of multiple gunmen often prove false.) According to NBC News, the victims are two fourteen-year-olds and one seventeen-year-old, none of which, thankfully, suffered life-threatening injuries. One, however, was reportedly "grazed" on the head by a bullet.
Brashear is the largest high school in the Pittsburgh public school system, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Rico says he lived in a different, and safer, part of Pittsburgh when he went to college there...
