I seem to recall somewhere in the cobwebs of my mind where a shooter was near the edge of a campus in (IIRC) VA. He was subdued by at least one armed civilian and the press did everything it could so as to not mention the armed citizen.

By the way, don't be standing near my girls when you lock down the classroom after hearing gunshots. Their next reaction is a desk through a window and exiting. I told them I'll pay for the damage.
