MADISON - Wisconsin state Rep.
Kitty Rhoades of Hudson received a text message from her son
stationed at Fort Hood in Texas telling her he had survived
a shooting there.
Rhoades got the message from
her 27-year-old son, Army Cpt. Mike Rhoades, at 2:18 p.m.
Thursday. The message told her to check the news and said,
"I'm ok .. we have a gunman on the loose."
The U.S. Army says 12 people
have been killed and 31 wounded in a shooting rampage on the
base.
Rhoades says she wrote a
message back to her son telling him to stay under his desk.
She says she's glad she got the message from him before she
had heard anything about the shootings.
