Dispatcher: Columbine Senior High School. There's been a shooting. There's a female in the south parking lot. OK, I'm sorry, can you tell me where she is?
Student: She's in the south parking lot on the lower parking lot.
Dispatcher: She's in the parking lot, the lower one?
Student: Right, toward the east end of that parking lot .... I just saw everyone running. I just saw the smoke.
Dispatcher: OK. We had a report of explosions down there. Is there a car fire or anything?
Student: People are saying there's a gun.
Dispatcher: Do you know if anyone was carrying a weapon out there?
Student: No, I do not. There's like smoke going off in the parking lot right now. There are loud noises. I'm not sure exactly. A cop is pulling up.
Dispatcher: Can you direct them?
Student: No, but they're going in the right direction. People are running out of the school like mad right now.
Dispatcher: Where is the female ... is she still in that south parking lot?
Student: I can't see her anymore. I ran to the phone.
Dispatcher: Can you see anything else?
Student: A lot of people are at the front of the parking lot and they're running out.
Dispatcher: When the kids came out of the school, which direction were they going?
Student: They went down towards the street.
Dispatcher: What part is this? Is it like the gym area, the cafeteria or just classrooms?
Student: They're coming from like the commons, the lunch area right now.
Dispatcher: The commons area?
Student: Everyone's running and I'm still standing here.
Dispatcher: You're out of the way of danger, aren't you?
Student: I believe so, I don't know.
Dispatcher: Do you mind if I keep you on the phone here so you can tell me if anything else is going on there?
Student: I think the fire alarm is going off right now. Yeah, the fire alarm is going off.
