On November 3, 2026, authorities released a frantic 911 call from Kaylub Giamanco, a 36-year-old Oregon carpenter who fatally shot a 16-year-old shooter at Silver Rail Elementary School in Bend. The caller was driving home for lunch when he witnessed the teenager firing a shotgun and scaling the school fence on October 15. In his approximately one-minute call, Giamanco warned of "someone with a gun" and declared, "I have a gun and I will shoot them right now." Despite the dispatcher's pleas to wait for police, Giamanco intervened, entering the building and confronting the shooter.
The shooting left three students (ages 5, 8, and 11) and a teacher dead. In earlier interviews with Oregon Public Broadcasting, Giamanco recounted hearing children pleading for their lives as he crawled towards the gunman. His actions have been widely hailed as heroic for stopping further deaths at the school where his two daughters were also present but unharmed during the incident.
