Gunfire leaves 1 dead

This article appeared April 10, 2009.

A man lies dead in front of an abandoned house. A trail of blood dots the sidewalk and grass. A neighbor's Pontiac Bonneville is splattered with blood and broken glass, a bullet hole in its rear panel.


This is clearly the case of Andy's feeble attempt to write his screenplay and a news story at the same time. His journalistic integrity made him state it was a Pontiac Bonneville, though he really wanted to put it was a Lamborghini. It will be changed in the editing process.

Also, the headline might need some tweaking. We don't really need "1" do we? "Man" or even "North Charleston man" should suffice.
