JACKSONVILLE, FLA. —

A Florida schoolteacher says he was one of those hurt in a deadly mass shooting Sunday at a “Madden” video game tournament in Jacksonville.

Two people were killed and nine injured by gunfire, police said. Two others sustained injuries that were not gunshot wounds, according to authorities.

The suspected gunman, David Katz, killed himself, officials said.

Dalton Kent, of Port St. Lucie, said he suffered a gunshot wound to the ankle.

“While the shooting happened, a bullet ricochet and hit my foot, and once the shooting shopping we ran away,” Kent said. “I waved down an ambulance –and they stopped.”

He added: “When it happened, every time they shot, I was hoping they wouldn’t hit me. Really glad to be alive.”

Kent said he was in Jacksonville for the tournament. He said one of his friends was also shot and was badly injured.

“(My friend Larry) was shot two times,” Kent said. “He’s one of the ones in critical condition. Hopefully, he comes through.”

Elijah Cummings was shot and killed during shooting.
