Seattle Pacific Univ. building monitor Jon Meis, one very brave young man.
2016-06-16
Newly released surveillance video shows heroic student security guard Jon Meis disarming suspected gunman Aaron Ybarra during a 2014 shooting at Seattle Pacific University in Washington state.

The dramatic video, released by the King County Prosecutor’s Office, shows Meis charging at Ybarra, hitting him in the face with pepper spray and then taking him down to the ground, pulling the gun from his hands.

The video starts with Ybarra, armed with a long gun, walking into the building and pacing around. He then shoots a woman as she walks down the stairs. The woman stumbles off as Meis appears, stopping the gunman.

I've noticed this on other Rantburg postings and thought the should be applied. I've since wondered if the Rantburg 'authors' aren't mellowing.

I don't yet know if it matters or if the usage really demonstrates a drift to a "Kinder, gentler" Rantburg.
