Vice Principal Joel Myrick held his Colt .45 point blank to the high school boy's head. . "I said 'why are you shooting my kids?'
The shooter was Luke Woodham. Woodham had slit his mother's throat then grabbed a .30-30 lever action deer rifle. He packed the pockets of his trench coat with ammo and headed off to Pearl High School, in Pearl, Miss.
The moment Myrick heard shots, he ran to his truck. He unlocked the door, removed his gun from its case, removed a round of bullets from another case, loaded the gun and went looking for the killer. "I've always kept a gun in the truck just in case something like this ever happened," said Myrick, who has since become Principal of Corinth High School, Corinth, Miss.https://www.davekopel.com/2a/othwr/principal&gun.htm
