Wounded by two police bullets, Jeff Weise made his way back to a bloody classroom where he'd killed six people, put his grandfather's shotgun under his chin and pulled the trigger.

An e-mail account from a sheriff's deputy, obtained by The Associated Press, sketches a more complete picture of last week's attack at Red Lake High School.

Weise killed himself with a shotgun after being hit in the hip and leg, according to the March 26 e-mail, which also said a heroic security guard was shot first in the chest, then in the back.

In all, nine people died in the March 21 attack, including seven at the high school before Weise killed himself. It was the deadliest U.S. school shooting since Columbine.

I have a feeling that this story is going to get pretty convoluted in coming days.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

It surely isn't going to get any prettier.

I cannot even begin to imagine......

Interesting. I knew Jeff Weise had exchanged gunfire with a tribal cop but this is the first I heard that he was actually wounded.

I hope this guy is in hell. if he isn't, then hell probably doesn't exist.

We've got to get the kids that sense of security again, that the building is safe to come back to,"

Yeah, right. How is it any safer than before?

"roller skating instead of school work".

How about some midnight basketball?

[D-fendr]

Has no one asked why the school security guards were unarmed?

I'm surprised the liberals aren't screaming for the tribal police to be disarmed so this tragedy can be avoided from happening again. Then, the next time, the gun will have to be stolen from a citizen whereupon the liberals can then legitimately call for disarming everybody else! Well, not legitimately.....but you get the drift.
