^ Byron Price seems to be a good guy; I can see why he'd see the value of concealed carry after what he experienced.

He was able to defend himself against the knifeman after he was first stabbed by using his feet, but a gun could have stopped the knifeman quickly in his tracks instead of sending him running to the next victim.

Price heard a scream from a classroom where the first student was stabbed. When the construction worker, 31, heard the commotion and intervened, he was stabbed in his left side by the assailant as he tried to stop the attack.

'I just kind of kicked at him,' Price added. 'It was a really big knife and he was swinging it down so I figured if I was on the ground and my feet were at him, he could get my legs and not my body. And it worked.

'He had a smile on his face, he was having fun - which is more what bothers me,' Price told a local station.

Price also revealed that he drove himself to hospital despite his injuries and received nine staples. He is now at home with his children and fiancée.

Sheriff Vern Warnke said that Price's entrance into the classroom likely prevented the death of the first victim who was attacked.
