Seventh-grader Ethan Stonebreaker told The Associated Press that when the alleged gunman, also a student at the school, entered the classroom and opened fire, \u201cOur science teacher immediately ran at him, swatted a gun out of his hand and tackled him to the ground. If it weren\u2019t for him, more of us would have been injured for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n
Seaman\u2019s mother, Kristi, posted on Facebook on Friday afternoon that her son was shot three times while intervening with the shooting; in the abdomen, hip and forearm but was \u201cdoing well\u201d after surgery.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Seaman released a statement through Indianapolis\u2019 WTHR employee Jim Johnston on Twitter.<\/p>\n
\u201cFirst of all, thank you to the first responders from Noblesville and Fishers for their immediate action and care. I want to let everyone know that I was injured but am doing great. To all the students, you are all wonderful and I thank you for your support. You are the reason I teach,\u201d the statement read.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
