Oxford High School Shooting
This is Oxford High School in Michigan where the shooting happened.
Ethan Crumbley was a 15 year old sophomore student at Oxford High School in Oxford, Michigan. He killed 3 students and 8 were severely injured. It happened on November 30, 2021 in the afternoon. The student felt the need to shoot up the school for no apparent reason. We should still be careful and make sure the people around you are in the right state of mind, to prevent this from ever happening at your school.
Authorities have charged 15-year-old Ethan Crumbley as an adult. They charged him with terrorism, causing death, and four counts of first degree murder. He was also charged with seven counts of assault with intent to murder and 12 counts of possesion of a firearm during the commission.
The parents of Ethan Crmubley also played a big part in his choices. After the shooting happened the next day the police started searching for the parents. The officers arrested them after they found a vehicle that was reported by the owner of the industrial building that the couples were located at. They went missing after being charged with involuntary manslaughter. This happened three days after the shooting at Oxford High School.
Oxford Township is located about 15 miles west of Detroit. It has a population of about 22,000 (Photo: Google Maps).
There was a meeting at the school the same day that was with Ethan’s parents, Ethan’s teacher, and the principal. The teacher found a note on Ethan’s desk with a handgun written on it. The note also said “The thoughts won't stop, help me”. The parents insisted Ethan return to class, and three hours later the shooting happened.
The video from the surveillance cameras showed Ethan Crumbley “methodically and deliberately” walking in the hallway and aiming the gun at students and shooting. He started shooting right outside the bathroom, but after kids started running away, he would go down the hallway. He shot inside the classrooms and at students who couldn’t run away in time. He continued to do this for another four or five minutes until deputies came, and he set down the gun and surrendered. His phone was also found, where he was talking about shooting and killing the students the next day at Oxford High School. This massacre was the deadliest shooting on school property in 2021.
