Multiple victim public shooting in France - four dead, two injured

The four and eight-year-old sisters have survived.  The four-year-old hid under her dead mom, and the eight-year-old was shot three times and is in critical condition. 
A four-year-old girl miraculously survived a shooting in the French Alps that left four people dead by curling up under the bullet-riddled corpses of her mother and grandmother, officials said Thursday. 
The little girl spent eight hours concealed on the back seat of her family's car following a mysterious and brutal gun attack which also left her elder sister seriously injured and killed a passer-by. 
Her father, who was found dead in the driver's seat, was identified Thursday as Saad al-Hilli, a 50-year-old born in Baghdad but resident in Claygate, Surrey in the southeast of England. 
The fourth man who died is believed to be a local who happened to be cycling past the scene of the crime. . . . 
There is some discussion of this being a professional hit, but it seems unlikely that a professional hit man would leave potential witnesses.
