Multiple Hits on multiple targets & the dodge skill?

By TygerTyger, in Dark Heresy Rules Questions

If you get a hit, with enough successes, using either scatter or semi/full auto bursts, if you transfer one or more of those hits to alternate and legal targets, do those secondary targets get a chance to dodge as well?

For clarity:

Inquisitorial Agent Bob fires his autopistol at the center of the three approaching heretics on full auto. He score a hit, with 3 degrees of success. Knowing that the heretics are unarmored and weak, he decides to allocate 2 hits to the center heretic, and one hit each to the other two. The first heretic dodges successfully. Do the other two heretics have a chance to dodge as well?

Yes.

To see why, imagine it was the cultists firing at a group of PC acolytes instead.

Why wouldn't they?

Yes they all get dodge, and the one getting hit by 2 or more bullets would need to dodge with one or more degrees of success to dodge em all.

Can you site a reference for the underlined part?
