The man, Horrett Campbell, apparently jumped over a two foot fence into the kindergarten area and started to randomly attack people. It was later determined that Campbell suffered from severe paranoid schizophrenia and was sent to a secure mental hospital indefinitely, remaining there today.
One of the adults attacked, a nurse named Lisa Potts, was presented by Queen Elizabeth II with the George Medal for defending the children despite her own injuries, which include an almost completely severed arm.
