Math teacher David Kachadourian has been talking to the press about what happened during the school shooting at Successtech Academy on Oct 10, 2007.

Kachadourian was released from MetroHealth Medical Center on Wednesday for his own treatment. He heard loud popping noises during one of his math classes, and went to see what was happening.  He saw Asa Coon holding two guns but at first Kachadourian didn't think that the guns were real.  However, the guns were real and he was shot in the back.

Despite his gun wound, David Kachadourian continued to help students escape from the scene and exit the school building.  He was then attended to by police and medics.
