Hello,
Can you help me please?
Thanks for any reply.
You entered a room of 34 people. A shooter then enters killing 30. How many people are left in the room?
What does "A shooter then enters killing 30" mean ? Doesn't it mean that the shooter first of all killed 30 people and then entered that room?

Hello
Maybe a comma is missing.
A shooter then enters, killing 30.
It is not expressed very naturally, it sounds like a headline, telegraphic style.

Then, I think I am right, aren't I?
