The “‘Freeman High School shooting’” was an American school shooting that occurred on the morning of September 13, 2017, when then 15 year old sophomore student Caleb Sharpe, took some of his father’s firearms to the second floor of a school building in the small community of Rockford, south of Spokane, Washington, and opened fire indiscriminately on three girls in the hallway; (after killing fellow student Sam Strahan who came up and spoke to him in regards to what he was doing). He was then subdued by a school janitor/custodian, and a resource officer who came to help. Years later he was sentenced to decades—(to)—life in prison. A minor school shooting. However it affected the community greatly. It—as of 2023–remains one of the few deadly school incidents in Washingtonian history.
