Thursday was the first day back for students from the winter break and classes had not yet started for the day so there were fewer students and staff in the school at the time of the shooting, said Sheriff Infante.

Multiple law enforcement agencies responded to the school after being notified of the active shooter situation.

Dylan Butler, 17, who was a senior at Perry High School, opened fire on Thursday morning – shooting dead a sixth grader who attended Perry’s Middle School. 

Butler was armed with a pump-action shotgun and handgun – both of which are illegal for a 17-year-old to obtain in Iowa. He also had a rudimentary explosive device – which was undetonated and was later rendered safe by fire marshalls. 

The 17-year-old died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound by the time first responders arrived at the school, shortly after 7.40am. The ordeal triggered a mass evacuation of 1,785 students on their first day of classes after winter break. Cops have yet to provide a possible motive. 

One of the five people injured was the school’s principal, Dan Marburger, who was rushed to hospital and is currently in surgery for his gunshot wounds. 

The other four people injured were students. Of the five, one is in critical condition – although police did not confirm if this was the principal or a student. 

Hours before the shooting took place at 7:37 am, Butler posted a TikTok posing in what appeared to be the school bathroom, with the caption: ‘Now we wait.’

Multiple air ambulances were also spotted arriving and leaving the area.

The Perry Community School District has about 1,785 students. Perry is located about 40 minutes northwest of Des Moines… 

The shooting occurred before the school day had started, and there were very few students and faculty in the building, “which I think contributed to a good outcome in that sense,” Dallas County Sheriff Adam Infante told reporters during an earlier press briefing.

“There is no further danger to the public. The community is safe,” Dallas County Sheriff Adam Infante told reporters during an earlier press briefing. “We’re just now working backwards, trying to figure out everything that happened and make notifications.”
