Viral footage shows students fleeing a classroom through a window when they believed the shooter in the deadly attack at a Michigan high school was at the door. But authorities say the person at the door was most likely a detective, not the gunman.
But Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said the person at the door was not the gunman, identified as Ethan Crumbley, and was most likely a plainclothes detective who was trying to put the students at ease.
The person in the hallway then asks the students to"come to the door and look at my badge, bro," causing several people in the room to panic.The students then rush toward a window and jump outside, running toward another entrance in the building where a law enforcement officer ushers them in and tells them they are safe.
"More than likely, it was one of our plainclothes detectives and he may have been talking ‘bro’ in a conversational manner to try to bring them down from the crisis to say ‘come on bro, let’s get out of the classroom. Let’s get you outside.’ That kind of comment," the sheriff told reporters.
