Cassidy Schutz, a certified learning specialist at Silver Rail Elementary School in Bend, Oregon, spoke out for the first time on October 30 about her actions during a school shooting that occurred on October 15. During the incident, Griffin J. John, a 16-year-old gunman, killed three students and one teacher in a special needs classroom before being wrestled by Schutz who threw her cellphone at him to try to take his shotgun. Another community member fatally shot the shooter inside the school afterward. In her statement released through the Bend-La Pine School District, Schutz expressed deep sadness over the tragedy, saying "there are no words" to describe the event and that she wishes more time had been available during the confrontation. She asked for privacy as she continues to heal from the traumatic experience.
