Oregon Hero Reveals Why He Said ‘F**k You’ To School Shooter Before Firing To End Attack

The father who took down a berserk school shooter in Bend, Oregon, said Tuesday he didn’t want to hear what the attacker had to say.

Local resident Kaylub Giamanco took action when a teenage gunman began firing shots at Silver Rail Elementary School. Giamanco told “CBS Mornings” that he didn’t have any desire to hear what the gunman who killed three children and a teacher with a shotgun and wounded two others during the Oct. 16 attack wanted to say.

“I didn’t want to hear what he had to say, he had taken lives,” Giamanco, whose daughters attended the school where the attack took place, told CBS reporter Norah O’Donnell. “I said ‘Fuck you.’”

“I don’t know what he was about to say and it didn’t matter,” Giamanco said. “It didn’t matter. I just knew he had taken the lives of innocent little babies, you know, 5, 8 and 11.”

Bend Police Chief Mike Krantz said during a press conferenc, authorities received a 911 call about the attack, only to learn three minutes later that a “member of the community” had ended the rampage. A portion of Giamanco’s call to a 911 dispatcher was played prior to the “CBS Mornings” segment.

“Someone’s at the school, at my daughter’s school with a gun. I have a gun and I will shoot them right now,” Giamanco told the dispatcher.

“It was like fight or flight, and something clicked, and I just, I analyzed the situation. I knew something was up. All the emotions flood out of me. I just kind of went into a mission mode,” Giamanco said, adding that he elected to act when he saw the gunman, later identified as a 16-year-old former student, force his way into the school.

Giamanco has not returned to work since the
