Kalamazoo, Michigan: Tiana Carruthers was watching several children, one of them her own, outside her apartment building on Saturday evening when a man approached. He asked a question. Then he started shooting.

The 25-year-old mother yelled for the kids to run fast to the nearest home as she was hit several times by the gunshots.

Local police credit her with saving the children. Carruthers also survived but was seriously wounded. A relative said she will need multiple surgeries and won't be able to walk for months.
