Megan Puettmann was in class Thursday morning when she heard the faint sound of gunshots.
The school was placed on lockdown and the students in Puettmann's classroom began barricading the door with desks and chairs. Then they waited silently in the dark classroom for what felt like forever, she said, until police arrived and evacuations began. A 16-year-old student had taken a gun from his backpack and opened fire in the quad of Saugus High School. He shot five of his classmates, killing at least two, before taking the gun to his head and pulling the trigger, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.The alleged gunman, identified by authorities as Nathaniel Tennosuke Berhow, 16, died on Friday. He had been hospitalized with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head.
The family of Addison, the 14-year-old girl injured in the attack, thanked the community"for their heartfelt thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time. Our community lost two young people yesterday, and our hearts are broken over this tremendous loss."
