Three hurt by bullets in snakeload car shootout
Irene Barnett and Danielle Garaway were struck by pellets in Thousand Oaks while three others suffered injuries after a “snakeload” shooting during a stunt event. Authorities questioned the accident theory as Wade and Bill Martin of the filming plaza debated whether shots came from stunt guns or an intentional act. Porteous led one of the reenactment groups, with Civil War Association and First Cavalry Corp assisting. Gary Harper, Civil War Association president, suggested the incident could be deliberate.
