Eighth-grader Shelby Kinnin was in the cafeteria at the time of the shooting.

"I was eating with my friends and stuff and we were chatting. I was about to move my chair over and I heard like a couple of a loud bangs. And then I looked over and one of the kids that got shot liked grabbed his leg. He fell down and the shooter like ran out. There were kids screaming and like crying and everybody ran out of the building," Kinnin said.

Jones said after the shooting, Hancock ran from the school and dropped the weapon.

"He ran from the school. Threw his weapon. We're reviewing and tagging the crime scene at this point, which is the cafeteria in the school," said Jones.

K-9 officers were able to track Hancock's scent and he was taken into custody near school grounds. He was taken to the Butler County Juvenile Detention Center, Jones said.

"It was close to school grounds. He didn't get very far. He threw his weapon down. We retrieved that weapon. Our deputy was in school at that time and was in the cafeteria just a short time before that shooting took place," Jones said.
