There's not enough information in the linked article to really draw any conclusions.

..."the pilot of the A-10A Thunderbolt II sprayed 180 rounds of 30 mm high-explosive bullets from the aircraft's Gatling gun, aiming at a garbage fire he thought was the smoky residue of a bomb he'd just dropped."

He'd already dropped a bomb on a target he couldn't see?? Was he told to drop at that location? Doesn't make sense to drop a bomb and then strafe a position he couldn't even see. There must be more to this than we are being told, but of course, "Release of the 118-page document was held up as the military censored parts of it for national security reasons."
