Matthew A. Milby, 19, of Dixon has been charged with aggravated discharge of a firearm, aggravated discharge at a school employee and aggravated discharge at a school building.
Milby was shot in the shoulder by a police officer after firing shots in an Illinois high school hallway. Milby had recently been kicked off the football team for smoking pot.
When he opened fire yesterday, seniors were gathering near the gym to take part in a rehearsal for graduation.
Milby remains hospitalized with what authorities describe as non-life-threatening injuries. Fortunately, Milby was the only person shot in the incident.
Teachers and students barricaded themselves in classrooms when the shots rung out and the school resource officer, Mark Dallas, immediately rushed towards the shooter. Officer Dallas has been hailed as a hero.
Milby's mother said she is grateful that Officer Dallas didn't kill her son. She said she had no idea where her son got the gun he used in the shooting, but students interviewed told reporters that it was well known that he had guns.
His mother also claims he was bullied and ostracized, but that too conflicts with what students told reporters.
