    The guy was behind a fence, with just the barrel of the gun poking through, so it’s not too surprising their shots missed.

      The effective range of an AK-47 is 380 yards. The shots were taken somewhere between 300 and 500 yards. I don’t think the shooter had a chance of making that shot and it is more likely that he was just trying to make himself famous.
