Probably a ton but people also get injured in the rush to GTFO too.

Wgn news was just playing video. It was definitely a fully automatic weapon. There were four distinct rounds of fire, probably 50 or so rounds in each

I'd imagine injured includes folks who were trampled trying to flee and that sort of poo poo as well. But yeah, dude had a fully automatic weapon and was firing into a huge crowd from the 32nd story of someplace. Is it still less than 100 dead?

it isn't too hard to injure hundreds of people when youve got a few thousand crammed into a small space right below you

those rounds couldve easily passed through multiple people

I guess the question was if he illegally modified a semiautomatic or had a legal grandfathered fully automatic.

I initially guessed illegally modded but if he had enough cash to own two airplanes then he might've just sprung for a grandfathered weapon.
