Overview
- The Tuesday footage, obtained by KFOR through an open-records request, showed Principal Kirk Moore bursting from an office, tackling 20-year-old former student Victor Hawkins and pinning him on a bench.
- Hawkins entered after someone opened a door, pointed a pistol at people in the lobby, and a jammed gun created a brief opening that let students flee and staff move in, according to affidavits.
- Moore was shot in the leg during the struggle and an assistant principal kicked the handgun away, with Moore treated at OU Health and now recovering at home; no one else was hurt.
- Investigators say Hawkins studied the 1999 Columbine attack, took two pistols from his father without permission, and intended to kill students, staff, the principal, and himself.
- Hawkins remains jailed on $1 million bail with a May 8 court date, and the state bureau is reviewing how he got inside while saying the person who opened the door was not an accomplice.
