Why is the man's age so important that it has to be on the headline ? Why are we so obsessed by age... how old is the bus ? We should be told.... "Man,23,is shot on bus,3, by gunman,36 ! I come from Nottingham.Here, such things aren't even news.
I seem to remember a similar headline a few years ago to the effect that 'a man gets run over by a london taxi every day'. You would think after the first few times he would be more careful.
