When Seconds Count Police Are Only Minutes Away

He picked the wrong place to do stupid stuff. Pearland band dads take down active shooter at high school | FOX 26 Houston

Pasadena ISD officials said a man in his 80s with a gun entered the school between 5-6 p.m. and fired two shots. One hit a door and another struck a 26-year-old victim in the shoulder, who the Angelton ISD says is a percussion technical consultant for Angleton High School.

The shooting victim was taken to a hospital, and he is expect to recover.

The four are 13-year Air Force vet Abram Trevino, 13-year Army vet Adam Curow, 4-year Marine vet Efrain (Polo) Castillo and 32-year Houston Police Sergeant Joe Sanchez.

They tackled the guy, removed his firearm, and held him until police showed up.

The four say they and two other men took the suspect down to the ground and restrained him.

One injured in a middle of a band competition. This could have been so much worse, but people on the scene acted for the good of all.

The shooter made a statement to police, but it makes even less sense than they usually do. (Hat tip to Lawrence Person's BattleSwarm Blog.)
