Not even a bullet could stop this principal from taking down a Columbine massacre-obsessed school shooter

Not even a bullet could stop Oklahoma principal Kirk Moore from taking down a Columbine-obsessed school shooter on April 7, 2026. According to NY Post, newly released surveillance footage shows the 60-year-old charging at armed ex-student Victor Lee Hawkins moments after being shot in the leg, preventing what could have been a far deadlier attack.

The video, obtained by local news outlets, captures the terrifying moment Hawkins, 20, opened fire in the lobby of Pauls Valley High School. Court documents reveal Hawkins told investigators he “didn’t like Principal Moore” and “went to the school to kill” him. He ordered everyone in the lobby to get on the floor before his weapon malfunctioned as he tried to shoot a student. When he turned his gun on another student, who begged him not to fire, Moore rushed in.
