Saudi Family Injured after Entering an American Military Zone in Kuwait
2005-08-11
American soldiers "accidentally" fired on a civilian car that entered a shooting range in which they were training on Tuesday, injuring two adults and a child, the U.S. military said.
"Honey, why don't we take the kids for a drive in the country!"
"Oh, yes, let's! It's such a pretty day! Where do you want to go?"
"How about down to the U.S. firing range?"
In a brief statement, the military said there were three other children in the vehicle. They apparently escaped unharmed. The civilian passengers were "not related to the U.S. military," the statement said. "The child sustained minor injuries and the extent of the adults' injuries are unknown at this time," according to the statement. They were taken to a local hospital.

#2  The accident is that they were not all killed. Had it been a Marine shooting range there would have been no survivors.
