yesterday's madison school shooting that left 4 students injured... and a 14- year old suspect behind bars. good evening, i'm tricia macke. i just got off the phone with chief anthony dwyer from the butler county sheriff's office who gave us new details about what exactly happened. he tells us james hancock got the gun from a relative on saturday. and the morning of the shooting.. he told two students that he had a gun... even showing his loaded gun, to one student just before the shooting. then dwyer tells us as hancock got up from a round table.. after the resource officer left the cafeteria.. and ran toward the door... and started

at one of those tables. as we know the two people shot were 15-year old cameron smith and 14-year old cooper caffrey. 9 seconds later... officer ken hill cafeteria... chased after hancock on foot.. then by car.. and cornered him. custody.. after surrendering in a field a half mile away... 21 minutes after the shooting. that's where he found the .380 caliber gun. by the way.. dwyer says there's surveillance video ey he.but aren't releasing yet.. and 4 hours of police radio traffic. meanwhile.. students and their parents are walking through the halls right now as part of an open house aimed at easing the minds of everyone in the school. fox19 now's mike schell joins us live.... mike what's the scene like? roll cue to pkg: "....try to cope with

aleeana carpenter and connor miller were both sitting at the same cafeteria table as austin hancock.. 1aleeana "we were just sitting there having fun and then the next thing we know austin tells us he has a gun." just moments later....aleaeana says...the bullets began to fly... 2aleeana shots everybody shock, i was just like watching and the bullets were like flying across my face. i could time." 3aleena "after austin shot i thought cameron was dead because he was aiming right for the back of his head." buter county sheriff...richard jones is looking into hancock's state of mind at the time of the shooting... 2jones 'i've not seen any evidence at this point, but its ongoing that this 14 year old had any issues." and that seems to

consensus among hancock's peers 1connor "i've known him since kindergarten. he's not even the type of person who would do something like that." 2connor "i don't think he's ever been in a fight a school. you know, he's a good kid. he's a good kid and he's the one who brought a gun to school madison is like the only school that i never thought would have a gun shooting." mike do those kids you spoke to have any clue about what the motive any clue about may be?

superintendent of madison local schools held a press conference to announce some changes when classes resume tomorrow. crisis counselors will be available for students.... and additional staffers will be on school busses and inside the cafeteria to help everyone feel safe. "we'll have additional supports in the cafeteria the next few days again with our goal of returning to as much normalcy as we can.... our number one priority is making students feel safe despite what happened." just a few hours ago... investigators released more 9-1-1 calls from students shedding more light on what exactly happened. "dispatcher: butler county 911 whats the adress of... caller: there was a shooting, there was a shooting at madison high. dispatcher: ok, ok, we have help in route. are you at the school? are you at the school? caller: no i ran out to

friends. dispatcher: are you a student? yeah, i'm an 8th grader. dispatcher: you're an 8th grader? where are you? caller: i'm at the football field." today the suspected shooter faced a judge for the first time... and while you see james hancock right here...a judge ordered that his face not be shown in court. fox19 now's sara celi was there as emotions ran high. james austin hancock's hearing only lasted about 90 seconds and he came into the courtroom showing little emotion on his face.... his family members were in the gallery section, several of them were very upset, they were crying as the judge read out the charges and also as the attorney responded to those charges. his attorney denying all the charges and basically entering a not guilty plea in juvenile court, then he was sent back to the juvenile justice center and that's where he's going to stay here in butler county until his pre-trial hearing,

that would be the next step in this case. from butler county, sara celi, fox19 now. as always... we're gonna be following this story as it develops along the way. as new details come in... you can stay connected on air, online and on the fox19 now mobile app. weather now animation switching gears now.... a wild weather day here in the tri-state steve.... no severe storms today rain has been falling all afternoon and as the thunderstorms moved into the fox19 now viewing area they quickly weakened and became just rain showers. i cannot rule out an isolated clap of thunder into evening but i can rule out severe storms. snow showers overnight will bring a light dusting to parts of the tri-state but no significant accumulation is in the forecast. there could, however be a few icy spots in the morning. they're calling him a hero tonight!
