Church attack victim issues statement
Posted By katie allison granju
From Allison Lee this afternoon:
I read in yesterday’s newspaper (Sunday Knoxville News Sentinel) that a woman was “trampled” during the shooting yesterday at the Unitarian Church. I believe that refers mistakenly to me. I want to be clear that I was not “trampled.” I heard the blast, saw the man with the gun and saw a woman behind us collapse, bleeding. I threw myself and my daughters on the floor and we crawled as fast as we could to the exit then outside. It was only after the police arrived that I realized I could not walk. At the hospital thay said I broke my kneecap, probably while crawling frantically. But nobody in the church stepped on me or over me. It was quite the opposite. Many people, several in particular, were extremely helpful to my daughters and me, even though we were just visiting that day to see the children’s show and are not members of the church.
