Police seek answers after children killed in Oregon school shootinghttps://srnnews.com/police-seek-answers-after-children-killed-in-oregon-school-shooting/The bystander has not been publicly identified by police, although the New York Times reported that he was the father of two young girls who attend the school.
Oregon Governor Tina Kotek said at the press conference that the bystander “heroically intervened to stop further loss of life.”
Beyond those killed, a 7-year-old student and a 54-year-old teacher were taken to hospital with critical injuries.
It was not clear if the shooter had any prior connection to the school, which has about 450 students from kindergarten through the fifth grade, roughly ages 5 to 11, and 40 staff members.
The New York Times and other outlets, citing unnamed law enforcement officials, identified the teenager as John J. Griffin II, and investigators searched his home and seized electronic devices. They believe he used a 12-gauge pump-action Maverick 88 shotgun in the attack, which police say is registered to his mother, the Times reported.
Most of the rest of this Reuters article, before and after what I quoted, is standard MSM anti-gun
. The article, unsurprisingly, does not mention that OR's anti-gun laws did not hinder the killer, nor that the father who took out the killer had to violate OR's anti-gun laws to save the lives even Goobernor Kotek admitted he saved. But the articles adds details to the picture.
