An armed man shot a gunman in the head as he opened fire at a school event.

Titusville, FL - A man licensed to carry a firearm took out a gunman at a school peace rally on Saturday after the gunman opened fire.

The incident happened at Isaac Campbell Park just after 5:20 p.m. according to WFTV.

People brought their children out for a "Peace in the City" event that was promised to be a "day of fun, not violence."

The anti-violence climate changed after two people at the event got into a fistfight. One of the people involved left, and then returned with a firearm.

The man opened fire in the park, which was full of children.

A bystander who was licensed to carry a firearm drew his own weapon and shot the gunman in the head.

The gunman was airlifted to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Nobody important was injured.

“We are extremely grateful that nobody else was injured in this incident,” Deputy Chief Todd Hutchinson said in a statement released by the city. “This suspect opened fire at a crowded public park, this could have been so much worse."

The detectives consulted with the State Attorney's office and announced that they do not expect to file charges against the legally armed citizen, because his actions appear to be legal.

great story,maddening they don't report it.this will bite the media eventually,it aint goin away.

It's on Fox news website. First article that pops up.

saw it a few hrs ago on fox , wonder why cnn has not reported on it.

Yep, was on the news station that liberals don't like this morning, Fox.

They showed a short video someone there shot of it happening. Ya could only hear the shots being fired.

MSNBC is running a full hour show tonight at 7pm on how good guys with guns are awesome.

Really? I call bull butter !!! Lol

Good to know at least one major cable news outlet carried the story.

I only watch about ten minutes combined of the three major cable outlets each morning. CNN and MSNBC to see what the latest Trump-bashing is about and Fox to see what story the morning show hosts are rushing through. This morning it was something about Canada wanting to stop imports to the US and Mexico hoping they would.

Brian Kilmey rushed the guy so much it was glossed over. All so they could cut to the outdoor cooking fest...

I get more news from you guys here on Tman than the major cable outlets.

LOL TNcat, that was fake news, good call. But they should be running a story like that, the dude is a hero!

That's Chris Matthews' time slot (Hardball with Chris Matthews). That's the guy who claimed he got a "tingle up his leg" when Obama was elected. Kinda figured he wasn't doing any pro-gun episodes.

too bad,he could be number 1 if he did i bet.one of them big boys will figure it out sooner or later and we'll put him on our shoulders like trump..

Saw it first thing this morning. Last sentences of the article were that the shooter and Good guy with the gun are both remaining unnamed.

Heard it on AFR today
