An American mum has prepped her five-year-old son for school by running active shooter drills and arming him with a bullet-proof backpack. Cassie Walton, 23, made the devastating decision to teach her son, Weston, for a shooting ahead of his first day.
Her decision comes after a gunman killed 19 children at Uvalde Elementary School, in Texas, USA, which is just 500 miles from the Waltons' home in McAllister, Oklahoma. She taught her son to run and hide when he heard danger, and a video of her training session shows him ducking down behind his bag - which has been modified to be bulletproof.
