F-16 Fires on School in New Jersey

It's funny because it's true. Wait, there's a New Jersey? Guardian:

A National Guard F-16 fighter jet on a nighttime training mission strafed an elementary school with 25 rounds of ammunition, authorities said Thursday. No one was injured.

The military is investigating the incident that damaged Little Egg Harbor Intermediate School shortly after 11 p.m.

Hat tip to James Joyner and Jeff Quinton. How could I resist passing this along?
