As a gunman opened fire inside Oxford High School on Tuesday, confusion reigned as students, fearful for their lives, were unsure if the person knocking on the door was a gunman or actually an Oakland County Sheriff Deputy.
In the TikTok video, you can see confusion in the classroom as students were unsure if they were safe or not. From the other side of the door, someone yells “Sheriff’s office, it’s safe to come out.”
One student spoke for the classroom and said they “we’re not willing to take that risk right now.” The voice on the other side said “come to the door and look at my badge, bro.”
The word ‘bro’ was enough to trigger the skeptical students not to open the door but instead escape out the window.
“He said bro. Red flag,” one student said.
