Details are beginning to emerge about the deadly shooting at Apalachee High School on Wednesday, where at least four people have died so far.

Some of them were provided by a student from the Georgia school, who recalled her experience after being rushed to safety by police.

"We do drills all the time so everybody thought it was a joke at first. it was until this girl got to our classroom and was like 'there's police everywhere,' this is not a drill. A light went on and that's when we realized it was real. There was a chase going on in the halls and our math teacher got shot and he was just lying there in a pool of blood," said the student.

Additional information came from a video posted by Fox 5 Atlanta reporter Brittany Edney on her X account: it shows law enforcement evacuating students inside the school after the shooting began.

In the video, shot by Joel Romero, students are gathered in one corner of the classroom, while officers are near the entrance directing everyone to exit the classroom in a "single file line."

"Hurry up now come on let's go," an officer tells the students. "We got a whole school to get evacuated."

The rest of the video shows students entering the hallway, joining the rest of the student body, all moving in a line towards an exit. As more reports continue to come in, authorities say the suspected gunman is a 14-year-old boy. It is still unknown whether he attended the school.
