Not all of the people who were injured were shot. Guido said at least one person was hurt while trying to get out of the club. There were as many as three shooters involved, she said.

Analysis: The Author is Shanna Pavlek and she appears to be a non-biased party. This article was created on February 8th, 2016, right after the incident had taken place, adding to the urgency. I had no prior knowledge of this event. The audience is the concerned American republic and this story has a negative effect on them. The reason for writing this article was to educate the American public on these occurrences. This directly relates to the more recent tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary and the loss of lives due to a shooter.
