Sounds odd. For one, who gets up at the crack of dawn for a shooting. Why did the gunman shoot himself but is only "down"? Is he dead?

"Down", in this context, means the shooter is injured or dead and is no longer an active threat. He might also be dead but that is a determination for the EMTs, coroner or whomever.
