Hope the police here have better investigation skills than the reporters. Though it is nice to see a story not about Covid at least.

It was the RTP after all, so don't ask difficult questions.

Who determined this was a "random" BB shot?  How do we know that they couple (or one of them) was being delivered a message for some reason.
