The volunteer firefighter hailed as a hero for ending a deadly shooting rampage at a South Carolina elementary school minutes after a teen opened fire also carried a gun on campus, a violation of South Carolina law.
No one is suggesting charging the Townville hero, but Jamie Brock's quick actions at Townville Elementary have some legislators calling to change state law.
The Anderson County Sheriff's Office has confirmed Brock had a handgun when he tackled the 14-year-old charged with killing his father before opening fire on a playground, fatally shooting a 6-year-old boy and injuring three others. It's unclear if Brock even took his gun out of its holster. Authorities have not said, and Brock has declined to speak publicly about the shooting that devastated his small, rural town.
