Aug. 20, 2013: Dekalb County Police SWAT officers run toward Ronald E. 
McNair Discovery Learning Academy after reports of a gunman entered the 
school.APA 20-year-old man faces criminal charges after allegedly firing 
shots from an assault rifle Tuesday at an Atlanta-area elementary school.No 
one was injured in the shooting and all students and teachers were 
accounted for and safe. The suspect, later identified as Michael Brandon 
Hill, fired at least a half-dozen shots with an assault rifle from 
inside the school and officers returned fire, DeKalb County Police Chief 
Cedric L. Alexander said at a news conference.The suspect told a person 
inside the school that he didnt want to hurt anyone, but he 
wanted to talk to police, MyFoxAtlanta.com reported.Hill is charged with 
aggravated assault on a police officer, terroristic threats and possession 
of a firearm by a convicted felon.The 800 or so students in 
pre-kindergarten to fifth grade were evacuated from Ronald E. McNair Discovery 
Learning Academy in Decatur, a few miles east of Atlanta.They sat outside 
in a field for a time until school buses came to take 
them to their waiting parents and other relatives at a nearby Wal-Mart.

named Ruckus but the bird never soared high with the student body 
and was scrapped in 2007, leaving the school without a mascot. Fast 
forward and the school decided to put together a committee last spring 
to determine the new mascot, but Boone was not even considered.Boone was 
a polarizing figure that did not reflect the growing diversity of the 
UD community, but rather was an image that many women, persons of 
color, international students and faculty members found difficult to relate 
to as defining the pioneering spirit, Chancellor Robert Coombe said in a 
March letter to the school community.University officials also claim that 
Boone was not up for consideration because of a consensus by the 
student body that it wanted an entirely new mascot  despite numerous 
Facebook postings to the contrary.It was really about moving forward, Theresa
