Stem Academy in Highlands Ranch shooting

[davsel]

Got a link for that? Seems like rather HUGE news but I don't see it anywhere. If that is true, then alot of eyewitnesses will have some explaining to do because that matches up with non of the reported accounts so far.

It seems to me the Media has already started to move on. National news have dropped this and local already has it down the page less important than an inch of snow.

HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo. ? An armed private security guard who was assigned to the Highlands Ranch Colorado STEM school campus may have mistakenly fired at Douglas County deputies responding to the scene and injured a student, according to ABC News.

A top law enforcement official told ABC News that detectives are trying to determine if a round from the security officer?s firearm struck and wounded an innocent student. The source said the investigation is in its early stages and authorities are speaking with the security guard to learn more.

The student?s condition is not clear.

Authorities responded to the school just before 2 p.m. on Tuesday after a shooting that injured eight people and killed 18-year-old Kendrick Castillo.

A Douglas County Sheriff?s Department spokeswoman said she would not comment, citing the ongoing investigation, according to ABC News.

The school?s security officer is employed by BOSS High Level Protection. On Wednesday night, CEO Grant Whitus told ABC News that he was unaware of reports his employee may have fired at a deputy and wounded a student.

Unnamed "sources" again.
Sounds like someone possibly trying to turn the effectiveness of armed security on campus into a liability.
Have to wait and see.

Students who came to the event said they were frustrated to hear politicians speak, and the discussion turn to gun control

Oh this is interesting. Anyone know the details?

I had lunch with an old friend today and he mentioned it to me. I'm proud to hear the students are being rational and focusing on the good that came from the ordeal and refusing not to be victims. When I drove into the neighborhood a few minutes ago the HRCA signs had supportive messages using hashtag #STEMstrong.

My friend's wife is a teacher in another DougCo school and they had a threat on the school today. It was mentioned that there were a couple of related arrests, but a bunch of the students and teachers were uncomfortable about the situation being so close to the STEM shooting and are going home early.

This has completely blown up in their faces.

The kids chanting "mental health" have a good view of this. They probably see a lot of other signs and consequences that the media doesn't care about. Too bad the focus on gun control prevents a conversation about that.

Anyone supplying inside info saying “ sure, use my name” would have to be a flaming idiot. From a friend at the SO two detectives wearing tactical vests approached a door and believe the guard fired a round at them. There’s a regional lab in Centennial that I wonder if they’re doing forensics. Supposed to be under less of a case load than CBI with a quicker turnaround time. The phrase used is the guard was in “code black”.

Take it for what it’s worth.

STEM students formulating their own opinions instead of being sheeple. Imagine that. Good on those smart kids.

I guess the STEM school is not focused on snowflake studies.

IF the security guard DID end up wounding a innocent, or targeted responding LEO, this should be a rallying cry for better training for all of us that regularly carry firearms, regardless of the reason or role. Because the Left WILL, as we all know, make every attempt to paint all of us as unprepared amateurs that are more of a risk to the public than we are worth.

If the guard saved 35 kids in that classroom and injured or even hypothetically killed one by accident. I'll take that any day over losing the whole classroom to a nutcase.

That being said, it seems a training opportunity exists and communication can be greatly improved from what I heard on the Doug co freqs when this was in progress.

The students disarmed the shooter. Then a teacher showed up. I'm not sure when security or DCSO showed up after that.
