[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm shocked the teachers don't have a text or intranet system of some sort to warn them of danger without alerting the students. 
All that needed to happen was a mass alert to staff "where is alston?" [/quote]

One of the articles said that was how he was found -- texts were sent to the teachers of his picture with a question about whether he was in their classroom.  I'd imagine the teacher who got the text and thought "Oh, crap, that was one of the kids I pulled in out of the hallway when the lockdown was called" was pretty shaken.

I'm also wondering why the kids who saw him throw the gun under a chair didn't say something but maybe they were too scared to have Alston see them alert the teacher.  That is, I think, different than not calling for help when there's a kid bleeding out on the floor.   Or maybe they really didn't see if he was sneaky enough about sliding it under someone else's stuff.

There are a lot of unanswered questions here, including why it took 2 hours to find him.  [/quote]

The photo I saw looked like it had probably been tucked underneath his backpack. [/quote]
