Pauls Valley is a city not far from me, and this week they made news. A 20 year old former student walked into one of their public schools Monday with a gun. The principal saw this, and attacked the suspect, getting into an altercation that got him shot in the leg. Other staff in the area came to his aid and held down the gunman until police arrived. Thankfully, the principal’s wound was not life threatening. His name (the principal) is Kirk Moore, and I wanted to share because I think his name deserves to be heard.
