UPDATE (2:11 p.m. ET): A student witness says a science teacher tackled the shooter to the ground.
The teacher “immediately ran at him, swatted a gun out of his hand and tackled him to the ground,” according to seventh-grader Ethan Stonebraker. “If it weren’t for him, more of us would have been injured for sure.”
