While bystander and Silver Rail Elementary parent Kalub Giamanco's heroics in following the shooter inside and fatally shooting him are already widely discussed, Krantz said another teacher fought off the shooter for several minutes before he was fatally shot.
“当有人愿意为他人冒生命危险时，我们会认识到这一点。能够迅速观察、随后停车并跟随某人进入学校的反应令人难以置信，毫无疑问挽救了生命。”“那位愿意站出来为她的孩子们而战的老师 — — 令人难以置信，”他继续说道。“我们都认识到这是真正的英雄主义。在社会中我们很少看到这种情形。”劳拉·卢默在凯蒂·扎卡里亚离职后瞄准白宫新闻秘书职务调查最新进展枪击事件的情况和动机仍在调查中，学区已向社区通报，随着调查的继续，未来几天可能会在银山小学出现执法人员的存在。

The unidentified teacher threw her phone at John J. Griffin and then tackled and fought him before he was shot dead, Chief Krantz said. The teacher was not injured.“I don’t think we can underestimate or underappreciate that courage,” Chief Krantz said. “When someone is willing to risk their own life for others, we recognize that. The quick thinking to observe, to then park and follow someone into the school is incredible and undoubtedly saved people.“The teacher who’s willing to stand and fight for her children — incredible,” he continued. “We all recognize that is true heroism. We don’t see that a lot in society.”Laura Loomer eyes White House press secretary role after Katie Zacharia's exitLatest On The InvestigationThe circumstances and the motive of the shooting remain under investigation, as the school district has alerted the community about a potential law enforcement presence at Silver Hill Elementary in the coming days as the investigation continues.Chief Krantz said that they are looking into how John J.
