Football coach tackles would-be gunman at Oregon high school
Keanon Lowe, who works as a security officer at Parkrose High School, confronted and subdued a student who brought a concealed rifle to class before the student could point the weapon at anyone or fire a shot.

Students alerted school officials that a classmate had displayed troubling behavior in recent days, intimating a desire to hurt himself and acquire firearms, according to The Oregonian.

Lowe sought out the student at his government class, but he was not there, classmates said. Ten minutes before the class ended, police say 18-year-old Angel Granados Dias arrived wearing a long coat and pulled a rifle from beneath it. Students and teachers fled the classroom through a back door.

“At some point, a staff member at the high school confronted him,” police said in a statement. “A Portland Police School Resource Officer and other officers arrived and immediately entered the school and found the staff member detaining the subject in the hallway.”

I feel I am seeing conflicting things on what the man's job is, but good on him for taking action when he did.  Sounds like someone paid attention to warning signs this time.

This story will get buried for two reasons.  The guy doesn't sound white and he didn't shoot anyone, so this will vanish, fast.

And the coach didn't die crying in a corner while waiting for the police. Not relying on the Govt and taking action on your own is a violation of programing.

This story dropped pretty hard out of the news cycle here in Portland.   As you said.  no blood, and the attempted bad guy was stopped by someone who wasn't LE, and the fact that the bad guy wasn't a white conservative Christian loner....
