(AP) — Gene Rosen had just finished feeding his cats and was heading from his home near Sandy Hook Elementary school to a diner Friday morning when he saw six small children sitting in a neat semicircle at the end of his driveway. A school bus driver was standing over them, telling them things would be all right. It was about 9:30 a.m., and the children, he discovered, had just run from the school to escape a gunman. "We can't go back to school," one little boy told Rosen. "Our teacher is dead. Mrs. Soto; we don't have a teacher." Rosen, a 69-year-old retired psychologist, took the four girls and two boys into his home, and over the next few hours gave them toys, listened to their stories and called their frantic parents. Rosen said he had heard the staccato sound of gunfire about 15 minutes earlier but dismissed it as an obnoxious hunter in the nearby woods. "I had no idea what had happened," Rosen said. "I couldn't take that in." He walked the children past his small goldfish pond with its running waterfall, and the garden he made with his two grandchildren, into the small yellow house he shares with his wife. He ran upstairs and grabbed an armful of stuffed animals. He gave those to the children, along with some fruit juice, and sat with them as the two boys described seeing their teacher being shot. Victoria Soto, 27, was a first-grade teacher killed when 20-year-old Adam Lanza burst into her classroom. It wasn't clear how the children escaped harm, but there have been reports that Soto hid some of her students from the approaching gunman. The six who turned up at Rosen's home did apparently have to run past her body to safety. "They said he had a big gun and a little gun," said Rosen, who didn't want to discuss other details the children shared.

Why not go to the police station... Unless they were afraid of something? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2482470 Good question.

Read this kind of horse-hooey too many times over the years. Oh, the drama. So.... their teacher is dead, but these youngun's escaped unharmed. Tells this ol' coot their teacher is dead. And doofus doesn't call the cops? Just plays with the kids for a few hours? Yeah, spin me another yarn. SOOO sick of this shit. |
| OY VEY User ID: 27531391 12/17/2012 06:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | From the article: It wasn't clear how the children escaped harm, but there have been reports that Soto hid some of her students from the approaching gunman. The six who turned up at Rosen's home did apparently have to run past her body to safety. "They said he had a big gun and a little gun," said Rosen, who didn't want to discuss other details the children shared. 1. Of course, NOTHING is clear about this entire incident. 2. Of course, he doesn't want to discuss details cuz then he might get tripped up getting all his made-up "facts" straight. .. |

That's what I thought he should have notified the police to let them know the kids were with him and the police should have located the parents who were probably at the school looking for them. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 30143314 12/17/2012 08:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Isn't it interesting that the only piece of info he shares is that the bad man had a "big gun and a little gun"....which backs up the story of the shooter having a handgun and a rifle...when the first story was that the shooter only had the handguns. This is total bullshit. Why didn't he call the cops?? |

They too, didn't want to tell all the horrific details. Miss Soto's students did indeed run past the gunman. I believe the report said ALL the kids made it out (according the the son who survived). How that is possible is remarkable, but it appears to be true. You'd have to be sick in your mind to make something like this up. The mother recounted the story her son told her. |
