F-16 strafes school in Jersey

8 rounds hit building during training flight

An Air National Guard fighter jet on a training mission fired eight high-powered cannon rounds through the roof of an Ocean County elementary school Wednesday night. At least six of the 2-inch-long projectiles landed in empty classrooms.

Although the Little Egg Harbor Intermediate School was closed, four custodians were working inside the one-story brick building when the rounds landed just after 10 p.m., officials said. None of the workers was injured.

Just heard that on the news. The pilot missed his intended target by 3.5 miles!!! I am surprised they have a target range for military aircraft that close to any civilization much less an elementary school.

That firing range has been there sense just after WWII.....the population has grown up around it.

Still, you would think they might make some kind of off shore range!

If they did an offshore firing range, PETA and Greenpeace would have a field day. "You could accidentally shoot a whale or upset the balance of nature in that region".

Or they (PETA/Greenpeace) could provide moving targets.

The first headline I saw for this story said

F-16 strafes school in Jersey
National Guard claims it was an accident
????
Ok some school are out of control, but they needed to clarify that??
What next
"4th graders napalmed,after failing PE" ?? Laughing
