Riley Howell, who sacrificed his life for his classmates in the UNC shooting was a 'protector,' his parents tell ChrisCuomo: 'If he's anywhere near a situation like that he's going to run toward it and try to stop it.'
The University of North Carolina at Charlotte student who died after tackling the gunman in last week's campus shooting was remembered at a memorial service with military honors on Sunday, where close friends and family recalled a humble young man who loved the outdoors and was kind to everyone he met.
Authorities have said that Riley Howell, a 21-year-old ROTC cadet at UNCC, charged the shooter after he opened fire with a pistol in a classroom last Tuesday, saving the lives of others. Howell was killed, along with 19-year-old Reed Parlier of Midland, North Carolina. Four others were injured.
