- ^ Early reports of the incident claimed the student shot both the SRO and the administrator. However, a "media fact sheet" released July 22, 2022, by the Johnson County, Kansas, District Attorney said that after the SRO arrived with the assistant principal still insisting on searching the backpack, the student removed a gun from his backpack and shot the SRO four times, while the SRO returned fire. Meanwhile, the assistant principal tackled the student and was hit by two bullets. Stephen M. Howe (July 22, 2022), Media fact sheet -- Officer involved shooting, Johnson County, Kansas, July 22, 2022 (PDF), Wikidata Q115414345 For an early report see Olathe East HS shooting suspect arrested, WDAF-TV, March 5, 2022, Wikidata Q115416616
- ^ The Kansas City Defender also noted that according to the official narrative, the SRO received three bullet wounds plus a bullet to the chest that destroyed the SRO's body camera and was "discharged from the hospital just hours later". They also question whether this should be categorized as a "school shooting", because there's substantial evidence that the student had no intention of shooting anyone. He had been carrying the weapon in his backpack for some time, because he felt he needed it for protection, and he only removed it from his backpack when challenged by an assistant principal and by a veteran police officer (the SRO).
