2. This story has already been "corrected."

The new version says that it was "looters" who were shot, after one of them fired at the Engineers.

I don't know what to believe.

3. I thought I heard this on the news, but it was not elaborated, and I

was waiting to hear more about it and never did.
Guess it will disappear down the memory hole...
