Eyewitnesses Describe Shooter And ‘Sawed-Off Shotgun’ At Texas High School

Damon Rabon, a Santa Fe student, said that he followed his teacher out of the classroom and saw the shooter firsthand. (RELATED: Shots Fired At Santa Fe High School, Suspect In Custody)

“We heard, like, five more bangs, and then the kid came out [with] a black, like, trench coat on, a sawed-off shotgun with a pistol grip, and I think something sharp on his chest,” Rabon described. “And then he turned, and instead of looking our way, he just grabbed his backpack and went right back into the art room, so, at that point, we knew it was an active shooter.”

Rabon said that after he saw the shooter, he and his teacher went back into the classroom and closed the door. His teacher reportedly pulled the fire alarm in order to alert authorities, as Rabon said people in the class did not have cell service in order to call 911.

Another student, Avery Garza, told HLN that he also saw the suspect in a black trench coat and with a sawed-off shotgun.

Garza said his friend witnessed the shooter pulling out a pistol and shooting a girl in the head.

“He was in that class, and the shooter came in and started shooting. And he had a sawed-off shotgun and a pistol. And he shot a girl, and then pulled his pistol out and shot her in the head,” Garza said.

“We know who it is, but unfortunately I cannot give the name out. He was wearing a trench coat, I think it said USSR on it,” he added.

According to a local sheriff, at least eight people have died in the shooting and the suspect is in custody.

Two described a "sawed off shotgun". One said it had a pistol grip so it could have looked like it was "sawed off" but just short because of no standard stock. Then a pistol in the art class. So, how long before we find out where the weapons were obtained? What about the pipe and pressure cookers? Trench coat had USSR on it?

The witness is clearly wrong. It must have been one of those evil black assault rifles with the thing that goes up.

Everyone said if we would just get rid of those, this sort of thing wouldn't happen.

If we had control of the media, we could broadcast on all the networks 24-7 that those who oppose arming teachers have the blood of children on their hands.

But we don't control the media, the other side does. That's why they say opposing gun control is why this bloodshed happens.

AT least in Texas the death penalty is probable.

Not in this case. He's only 17.

Kids in the school said he wore the trench every day no matter the heat. So not surprising that no one was suspicious.

‘Two described a “sawed off shotgun”.’

Well, by gosh, we’d better ban those “shotgun” things...they sound dangerous! I hear it’s not too hard to chop the stock and barrel, good thing that’s illegal so nobody will do it!

Too bad nobody was nearby with a loaded AR...at least it would have saved the expense and spectacle of a trial and incarceration, even if it didn’t save lives outright.

Condolences to those affected!

So now the media will start telling everyone that a sawed off shot gun is just another “version” of the hated AR-15! Never mind that it doesn’t have a detachable magazine and doesn’t fire .223’s, doesn’t have a flash hider, and doesn’t even have a stock, let alone a collapsible one!

And a compass in the stock.

Can be eligible for parole after at least 40 years.

There is no Life without Parole in Texas for juveniles.

True, I can’t stand anything over 80 & must be in shorts & t-shirt, lol.

Still, it had to be an alert, unless everyone was looking at their dumb-phone...
