Author Topic: More on the student at my school who was killed  (Read 9460 times)

http://watch.ctv.ca/news/latest/killed-by-train/#clip619307

The school was pretty dark today.

There was no O Canada, there were no announcements. I walked in with Shannon, looking around, noticing that things were a little bit quieter.

We were carrying food for Valentine's Day, and as we walked up to Mrs. Ford's history room, we saw a huge crowd of people.

They were all around Jacob's locker, now dressed in flowers and candles. Everyone, I mean EVERYONE was crying.

Two friends of mine, Teah and Alexandra, were drained from tears. People were hugging, people were literally sitting crying around the locker.

One of the teachers, Mrs. Horner, started crying when she tried to announce it.

Jacob was an awesome kid. He was smart, and there was never a time when he wasn't smiling.

Emotional stability didn't last long for me. While I was walking home I broke down a little. I may not have new him as well as others but the idea that he is simply gone tears me to pieces.

He sounds like a nice kid. And I don't mean to be rude but how do you get hit by a train?
R.I.P

Most on BL forums assumed he was committing Self Delete and felt no pity. But seriously he could have maybe thrown a ball or something too far on the track and went to get it without seeing a train, and it was too late to jump when the horns sounded.


Hit by a train, what a horrible way to go. Rest in peace Jacob.

Mayeb the horns didn't sound at all the cause the train didn't see the kid.
According to the news, the kid was listening to music and didn't hear the train.
i'm sad.
ON VALENTINE'S DAY. :[
but seriously, you should suggest adding a fence along the train tracks.

May his soul rest in peace.

;-;

Yeah, and he was texting too, the walkway next to the tracks was probably where he was and he probably got distracted while texting and accidentally walked on to the tracks just as the train came.

Fixed the URL of the video.

The video shows my school, also one of the kids (Brad Pererra) who knew him really well. Also Mrs. Hempstead, who is like the all-time best principle ever, and yeah.

I am, Quite sorry for you And your fellow schoolmates lost, Staying calm is the best thing right now For you and your classmates/Friends.

Well its good to know people cared about him.  It sucks that he died.

It is only natural.  Even if we don't know the person who has been tragically taken from us, we still are affected by the stimuli of mass grieving by a large degree.

I don't know why we do this, but we do it as humans.  It's in our nature somehow, and it's what makes us, us.

love is the only thing that makes us humans
