Palestinian photographer shot during protests
2006-10-08
A Palestinian news photographer was shot and seriously wounded Saturday night by a stray bullet from local protesters as he stood at the window of his home in downtown Ramallah, Palestinian security officials said. The officials named the man as freelance photographer Osama Awwad, 29, and said he was hit when activists of the Fatah movement had gun sex fired their weapons in the air during a street protest against the rival Hamas group.

#6  I used to live in a loft in a bad part of town. There was a "social club" that was "for members only" just across the narrow street. Teenagers drinking beer and playing on old, worn out pool tables... there was a driveby on every other weekend on average. My roommate and I knew instinctively not to stand in the windows and look, cause that is how you get shot.
