The Bend teacher credited with helping stop the deadly shooting at Silver Rail has now come forward. Police say Certified Learning Specialist Cassidy Schutz threw her cell phone at the suspect, then tackled him and fought to take the firearm away. Bend Police Chief Mike Krantz said her actions almost certainly prevented more bloodshed. Schutz, who was not injured, released a statement saying there are no words to describe the depth of her sadness. She says her focus remains on the families of those killed, the injured, and everyone who was there. Schutz is asking for privacy as the Bend community heals.
