Chapter 14: Columbine

Chapter fourteen- Hostage Standoff, talks about the situation between the boys and the cops. Where they are both at a standoff, the boys are on the roof of the school while the cops are near the front of the school, the boys and the cops then have a shoot-off and luckily no one is harmed. There are also rumor circling about some possible hostages and the SWAT team is pressured even more to figure out a way into the school without putting the students in danger. When the SWAT team enters the school they are in a whole new environment with no maps of the school they have to go in blind without knowing where the killers were in the school.
This chapter also talks about how the media begins to speculate. The news teams and such are starting to think about what is happening and get information from the victims. However the majority of their publishing is either wrong or from a news station point they could put students in danger if the killers had been watching when they aired victim footage. Thankfully, they were not.
Overall, this book is very interesting and I am looking forward to reading more into this book and finding out more facts about the incident.
