Instructor shoots AI

[Mick-Boy]

Well lets not forget that the pistol jockey pulled the trigger three times and scored three hits on a live target. AND according to the above, he KNEW they were there as he set it up, so WTF was going through his mind that he lets three rounds off?

The shooter knew where the TARGETs were. He did not know the AI and student were in the house.

There are a dozen simple things that could have prevented this incident. At the very least propper target ID. (See point number one in my original post.)

Reading IS fundemental...

We're obviously not reading the same thing.

Shooter setup the targets. Check.
Class runs drill. Check
Shooter exits. Check
AI + 1 stays. Check
Shooter re-enters and engages "targets" in the dark. Fail here
Shooter ND shoots AI standing in front of target. Check

Like Jerry said, headcount fail.
