Outside of Deer Creek Middle School in Colorado, a few miles from the scene of the deadly 1999 shootings at Columbine High School, citizens were reminded of that painful memory when a shooter opened fire on two students Tuesday.
The two students, Matt Thieu and Reagan Weber, were on their way out of school when they were allegedly shot by Bruco Eastwood at about 3 p.m.
Eastwood was tackled by 57-year-old math teacher Dr. David Benke, who then threw him to the ground, where he restrained him and with the help of others took away his rifle. The injured students were rushed to a hospital. Both survived the attack.
