"He looks like any other high school student - except for the guns 14-year-old Asa Coon holds in each hand. Coon's rampage was captured in eerie, time-lapse snapshots by security cameras at SuccessTech Academy." See more images here. The local Fox affiliate has posted the video here.

Comments

This shooting was a direct result of school bullying. If this country is going to stop this horror teachers, administrators, and districts must take this kind of thing very seriously. In researching this recent event the administration was afraid of the parents of the kids who were bullying this kid. This shooter is dead wrong of course. As a country we have to stand up and stop being fearful of parents who are in reality bullies themselves.
