Official: Gunman killed at Fla. school meeting
He was killed by a security officer as he confronted school board
members
The Associated Press
PANAMA CITY, Fla. - A gunman was shot to death by a security guard at a
school board meeting Tuesday after he walked up to a podium, spray
painted a red 'V' with a circle around it and began firing, a school
official said.
Bay District spokeswoman Karen Tucker said former police officer Mike
Jones, the head of the school district's security, shot the gunman as he
confronted board members. Jones is also a former board member, she said.
There were no other injuries. The gunman's name has not been released.
Reporter Daniel Carson of the Panama City News Herald was at the meeting
and said the man didn't appear agitated while sitting in the back of the
room.
Carson and other reporters said the man then came to the podium and
began talking, perhaps cursing. He pulled out a can of red spray paint
and painted the 'V' with a circle around it on a wall.
The man then pulled out what appeared to be a handgun and told everyone
to leave except the male members of the board, Carson said. School board
member Ginger Littleton hit the gunman with her purse and he appeared to
push her to the ground, Carson and other reporters said. He then started
firing randomly.
Carson and others ran outside. Carson said he peeked through the door
and could see the man talking to the remaining board members. When he
closed the door, Carson said he heard two shots. He went back inside and
it appeared Jones had entered through another door and shot the gunman
in the head.
