what we need to with them as we move forward. i would like to remind the media that these scenes are very dynamic and they change. our number one priority is making sure that all victims are safe. additional information may take some time for us to make sure that we can get that information accurately to you. our number one priority right now is making sure we take care of the victims, the family and the community of roseburg, i would like to thank the first responders that responded today in a timely manner and thank you. sir we re not going to be able to take any more questions today. there s a command center in roseburg and hopefully we ll be able to talk with you there. we re getting more on this the shooter, the assailant or alleged assailant was a lot younger than thought, 20 years old and killed not far from the classroom scene. we re getting reports of what was going on in the classroom at the time. courtney moore, coming from the local newspaper, the news-review she was
the temperment, the mood, the motive of the shooter in this case. no way to know. we know that that report is legitimate. it comes to us from a local newspaper. it appears that the new york times reprinted that newspaper. i should say republished. as they did so on their website,@nytimes.com. it was stamped 4:48 p.m. eastern standard time. they ve since removed it from their website. that s not to say that the local newspaper in roseburg. the report remains and it stands. quoting a student, courtney moore from rogue river, oregon, i can think of no reason for her to give an inaccurate recounting of what happened in her writing 115 class in snyder hall when she heard the shot come through the window and her teacher shot in the head. no reason for her to lie about that, and no suggestion that she did. but what i can say is, we re very early in a very, very

site of anything violent. a former lumber community now trying to make a new money-making advance into windmaking and a place to go for touristses. enough it is end in history etched in history. we don t know what happened here or why a young man described in this early to mid-20s, went on a rampage here. what we do know is that he is dead. the situation is now considered complete. in other words, no longer a lingering threat but still so many ways few answers. kendra gordon is a student in the room next to where all of this went down. kendra, thank you for taking the time. we appreciate it. what happened? um, well, i was sitting in class and i had first heard the shots and we didn t think it was a gunshot. thought it was a firecracker. and then we heard another one, and so one of the students in my class went out and checked and got shot twice, one in the arm and one in stomach, and came back and he told house lock the doors and shut the lights if a and we sat there for
