Deputies stated they believe the teen used a 9 mm handgun in the shooting and tossed it before calling 911. They said the gun was recovered from the side of a nearby road Tuesday morning after the teen told them where he had thrown it. Mary Sisk worked in special education at Mountain Gap School in Huntsville, according to her bio on the Huntsville City Schools website. She worked at Madison County Elementary School last school year, a Madison County Schools spokesman confirmed. The shooter attended Elkmont High School, according to Young. Just before 6 a.m., the school posted to Facebook stating extra counselors would be at the school Tuesday. John Sisk had an active cosmetology license in Alabama. His LinkedIn page says he previously worked as a service technician at a Huntsville car dealership from 2014 to 2016. The sheriff’s office said the handgun was illegally in the home but would not elaborate. Records show John Sisk pleaded guilty to a felony charge of sexual misconduct with a minor in Indiana in 1999, and it is illegal for a convicted felon to possess a gun. It’s not clear who the apparent murder weapon belonged to.BREAKING OVERNIGHT: A 14yr has confessed to shooting and killing his 5 family members.
