16-Year-Old Graduate Identified as Oregon Elementary School Shooter, Subdued by Parent

The suspect behind the mass shooting at Silverrail Elementary School in the United States has been revealed to be a teenager who graduated from the school.

According to the Bend Police Department in Oregon, the shooter has been identified as 16-year-old Griffin J. John II.

Police stated that Griffin, an alumnus of the school, climbed over the school fence carrying a shotgun purchased by his mother, and forced his way inside by shooting open a locked door.

It was also revealed that a teacher and a parent risked their lives to confront the gunman, preventing further casualties.

Upon spotting the suspect, a female teacher threw her mobile phone at him, threw herself at him to push him away, and engaged in a physical struggle to disarm him.

The teacher survived the shooting incident.

Additionally, Caleb Giamanco, a 36-year-old parent whose two daughters attend Silverrail Elementary School, grabbed a handgun from his car after spotting the shooter and followed him into the building. He discovered the suspect engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the teacher and shot and killed him.

Before his death, the shooter fired around 15 rounds of shotgun shells, and 44 live rounds were found in his bag after he died.

The specific motive behind the suspect's crime remains veiled in mystery.
