Oklahoma Principal Tackles Gunman

Surveillance footage captured the dramatic moment Moore charged toward the 20-year-old gunman, who was armed with two semi-automatic pistols.

The suspect, identified as Victor Lee Hawkins, had reportedly expressed an obsession with the Columbine shooting prior to the attack.

Moore's quick thinking and bravery allowed other staff members to secure the building and protect hundreds of students.

The principal is currently recovering in a local hospital, while Hawkins faces multiple charges of attempted murder and aggravated assault.
