Chris Manfredonia, whose 6-year-old daughter attends the school, was heading there Friday morning to help make gingerbread houses with first-graders when he heard popping sounds and smelled sulfur.
He ran around the school trying to reach his daughter and was briefly handcuffed by police. He later found his child, who had been locked in a small room with a teacher.
“The whole reason we moved here a year ago is because when you drive down the subdivision, it’s a happy place,” said his wife, Georgeann Manfredonia. “There’s a ton of children here and the families are very kind and supportive.”
OK, I can buy that, although the LA Times article makes no mention of him running up into the woods. “He ran around the school” says to me that he ran around the school. Not up into the woods behind the school where they supposedly got him. This gingerbread house enthusiast parent needs to be interviewed as well. He too is lucky he didn’t get shot.
Seriously, what the hell made him run up into the woods if he was so concerned about his daughter who was INSIDE the school? What a weirdo.
I’m not around guns. Haven’t been shooting in a really long, long time. If that guy was outside, would he smell sulfur?
