An assistant principal “was mostly likely shot” by a school resource officer when an 18-year-old Olathe East High School student pulled a handgun from his backpack and started firing, according to a report released Friday.

This was a sudden burst of deadly violence without provocation.” Click on the link in our bio to read more. ✏️ Robert A. Cronkleton #olathe #olatheeast #schoolshooting
