Srgena Shooting Complications

When they put up photos of the shot-at car only showing its left side from front, that was fishy enough - considering that the 'checkpoint' was on the side (their side) of the road.

Now from this article, via histologion, I learn the acar was actually (also?) shot at from behind. The bullet hurting Srgena most came from behind. This explains why the driver as the only one lightly hurt. While making the clueless GIs shooting from panic theory less likely. Also, this was a VIP route, not the route used by ordinary people to the airport.
