By assassin you mean the one who got the bullets, right?

The assassin is the one who did the shooting. The one who got shot is the mass-murderer

No, he didn't assassinate anyone, just caused them to die. He would have had to know who they were and cared enough to specifically target them for it to be assassinations.

Assassination implies a targeted strike.

Systematic Mass killers are not assassins.
