BAKERSFIELD, CA.-Testimony resumes today in the Taft High School shooting trial. The Taft Union High School campus supervisor, who restrained Bryan Oliver, took the stand this morning.
Kim Fields testified as to what Oliver told him, minutes after the shooting. Fields says he responded to a report of a loud noise coming from the classroom the morning of the shooting, January 10, 2013.
Surveillance video from inside the school shows Fields and another school employee, Mary Miller, at the open door of the classroom. Fields says he saw Oliver inside the classroom holding a shotgun.
Fields said he told Oliver to put the gun down, which he said Oliver eventually did. He then bear hugged Oliver and sat him down on the floor. While they were sitting on the ground, Fields said Oliver told him he was picked on every day of his life. He woke up that morning and decided he couldn't take it anymore and he snapped.
Miller also testified briefly about tending to Bowe Cleveland's wound after he was shot. Ryan Heber, the teacher in the classroom during the shooting, also took the stand.
We'll have more on his testimony tonight.
