Fatality identified in Sparks City school shooting

Sparks City, Nevada

The fatality from today's shooting in Sparks Middle School has been identified.  Michael Landsberry, a math teacher at the middle school, was in the Nevada National Guard, and was also a former Marine.

Witnesses say that when a shot rang out, Mr. Landsberry came to investigate.  The student shooter pointed a gun at him, and Mr. Landsberry told him to put it down, whereupon he was shot and killed.  The shooter subsequently shot and wounded two other students.

Mr. Landsberry is survived by his wife, two step-daughters, and a legacy of giving his life as a shield for others.
