Tumbler Ridge student describes chaos during Canada school shooting: 'We were formulating an escape plan'

A mass shooting in a remote part of western Canada has shocked the country leading to the death of nine people on Tuesday. The incident occurred at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School on February 10, when a 'woman in a dress' opened fire on a school and home in British Columbia, injuring at least 25 people in the shooting with the suspect's body being found at the scene with a self-inflicted injury.

Darian Quist, a Grade 12 student who was barricaded in a classroom during the worst school shooting in nearly 40 years has now recounted the horror and chaos at the scene. After arriving at the secondary school at 1:30 pm, the student was barricaded in a classroom for over two hours with alarms sounding and alerting the students to get themselves to safety.
