University of North Carolina student confronted gunman, gave life: police chief

- A 21-year-old student killed in a shooting at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte saved some of his classmates’ lives by charging the gunman and attempting to disarm him, the city’s top police official said on Wednesday.

Police in Charlotte charged former UNC Charlotte student Trystan Andrew Terrell, 22, with two counts of murder and four of attempted murder but offered no explanation for a motive. They said he used a legally purchased handgun. The school’s chancellor, Phil Dubois, said all of the wounded were expected to recover, with one already released from the hospital. [nL1N22D10V]

Students spent a harrowing night as police searched door-to-door for other suspects, not giving the all-clear until almost dawn on Wednesday.

So why post picture of shooter when you should be posting the humble hero?

Lead with this please - show this picture - NOT the murderer! NoNotoriety

Take his picture down.

What political party was the shooter associated with? Who have they voted for in the past? Questions we wouldo like to know.

Then a firing squad is in order...

Whipepo...control ur kids 😒

Show their picture not his - HOW F'ING HARD IS THIS!!!?

Please stop showing his face.

MocksvilleD Sadness for all and how BRAVE was the young man who died to save others. Prayers for his family and all involved

Looks like a real winner.

I would rather this story led with a picture of the heroic student.

Burn in hell.
