Title: Police, FBI: Shooter reported in military building at Washington Navy Yard; multiple victims
Would someone please explain the date on this newspaper report to me?
If it hasn't been changed .. BY THE TIME SOMEBODY HERE "WAKES UP"! :hyper:
The date and time are copied and pasted exactly as the paper at the link wrote it!
That time is twenty nine minutes to midnight.
The shooting happened on Monday .. Somewhat close to nine AM.
Does the AP make mistakes like this very often?
It is a mistake .. right?
Right?

WASHINGTON - Several people were injured in a shooting Monday morning at a building at the Washington Navy Yard, the U.S. Navy said, and authorities searched for an active shooter.
A defence official, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak during an active attack, also said there were at least several injuries.
The Navy said shots were fired around 8:20 a.m. (1220 GMT) at the Naval Sea Systems Command headquarters, where about 3,000 people work.
The number of the victims and their conditions was not immediately known, though the Navy said multiple people had been injured.

I think people were looking at the time in your quote box, not the dateline of Sunday, Sept 15, at 23:31. That is very peculiar indeed.
Modified to reflect the correct dateline date. Thanks for catching that Dori! No need to add to the confusion.
