As an investigative journalist, it was a sad day to see fellow journalists get gunned down on national television. I knew instantly that this was going to be claimed as a "hoax", mainly due to how the woman reacted after being shot at (we aren't sure which percise shots actually hit her yet). The claim on this that many people are making, is that people "Drop" when they are shot, and are not able to run. Here's what i think. I think people have been playing too much Call of Duty, and expect people to react a certain way, after they have been shot. Here's a few examples of people who are fully capable of running at full speed, after being shot at point blank (in the stomach too)
Warning: no blood or brains, but the following videos may be unsettling
Very impressive running, right? Another example i like to use is the Walter Scott death. He was able to get atleast a solid 10 to 15 steps while running with possibly 3 bullets in the back before he finally fell.
Now then, as everyone here officially knows, running after you have been shot is fully believable. I'm sure there will be more "Evidence" in the future (Really within the next 2 days mainly targetting conflicting news reporting) that is going to appear.
[ADMIN UPDATE] This thread is largely discussing the above question. A more detailed debunking of a multitude of similar questions can be found at:

WideShut is an "alternative" media site, which does seem to entertain some conspiracy theories. But a more sensible site than, say, Infowars.
