As to the possibility of someone shooting like this, there are actually scenarios in IPSC competitions that cover this. The most relevant is "El Presidente", where three unobstructed "shoot" targets are engaged in the open from approximately 5 yards. This is taken from an actual defensive shooting where a body guard took out three assailants who were attacking his charge. He put 2COM in each of three targets in less that 2 seconds. Try it, it is not as easy as it sounds.
So you ask if a person could put one in each of two targets? I say yes. You add an accuracy component to your questions that may not actually be in the mix. The head shots could have been accidental, VERY close range, even contact shots. Since this likely never happened, we will never know.

I do not believe the incident asked about in the OP ever occurred. If it had it would have been big news here for days.While it has yet to be proven if this happened or not, I have my doubts.
Am I the only one that thinks engaging multiple target in close proximity with what I would call extremely controlled shot placement(headshots) under stress(fear for life) seems unlikely?
