A star baseball player was shot in the head during the Texas school shooting but survived as the hero cop who confronted him remains in stable condition.
Rome Shubert, a University of Huston baseball commitment and a sophomore pitcher for Santa Fe High School, was shot in the back of the head, but was well enough to tweet about the tragedy Friday afternoon.
'I'm so greatful and blessed that god spared me life today,' he wrote. 'Today I was shot in the back of the head but i am completely okay and stable.'
He told the Houston Chronicle was in his classroom when gunshots rang out.
'I was sitting doing my work and he walked in, tossed something on the desks behind me,' Shubert, who has returned from hospital, added. 'Then three loud pops and I jumped under my table and flipped it in front of me and I guess he ran out in the hall and I took off out the back door and when I was running I realized I was shot in the back of my head.'
The teen said he was so scared and he had so much adrenaline, he didn't realize he had been shot at first. The bullet 'missed everything vital'.
