2 School Shooters Stopped By A Student Who Sacrificed His Life To Save Others, As Well As An Aspiring Marine

HIGHLANDS RANCH, COLORADO — Just a few miles from where the Columbine School Shooting happened 20 years ago, two students went on a shooting rampage STEM School Highlands Ranch.

The suspects, an 18-year-old male and a younger unidentified female, walked into the school through an entrance with no metal detectors and began opening fire on students inside two classrooms.

They had at least two handguns with them, and neither of them were old enough to make such purchases.

One student was killed, and 8 others were injured. Of the injured, 5 still remain in the hospital.

Kendrick Castillo, an 18-year-old labeled “the best kid in the world” by his father, and now many others, was the student who lost his life during the incident. Castillo and others are credited with charging one of the gunmen, stopping at least half of the deadly rampage.
