[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A shootout is 2 groups shooting at each other. This was 2 perps shooting at victims.[/quote]

From Merriam-Webster:

[QUOTE]1: a battle fought with handguns or rifles[/QUOTE]

Now can you stop trying to wrestle over semantics and talk about the substance of the case?[/quote]

From the MCPD press release:
"Through the course of the investigation, detectives determined a confrontation amongst the 15-year-old and 13-year-old suspects and several juvenile victims occurred. During this confrontation, a handgun was displayed, the victims ran away and the suspects chased after them. 
A short time later, a vehicle was in the area of the 2300 block of Glenmont Cir. when the 15-year-old suspect shot at the vehicle occupants. The two occupants of the vehicle were uninjured."

This is not what people think of when someone says "shootout" and doesn't sound to me like a gun battle. More like as a PP said a shooting at two victims.[/quote]
