Wow! I’ve been following this all day and haven’t came across this. The sheriff today during his press conference made the case for having armed staff probably without even realizing it
“At approximately 10:23 a.m. officers from multiple law enforcement agencies and Fire/EMS personnel were dispatched to the high school in reference to a reported active shooting," the Barrow County Sheriff's Office said in a statement.
Barrow County Sheriff Judd Smith addressed reporters Wednesday afternoon, providing limited details. Smith said he first received a call of an active shooter at 9:30 a.m. “
It looks like there were armed school resource officers at the school and that's who nabbed him?? The cnn link above story says "Law enforcement arrived shortly after those calls, in addition to two school resources officers assigned to Apalachee High.
A resource officer confronted the shooter, who immediately surrendered to the deputy and was taken into custody, Barrow County Sheriff Jud Smith told reporters."
No info there about what time the warning came in to the school. Was it 7am, 9am, how soon before and who ignored it and why?
