INDIANAPOLIS -- A standing ovation Friday night at the Indianapolis Indians game for hero teacher Jason Seaman.
Seaman stopped a student shooter last Friday at Noblesville West Middle School. He was shot three times in the process.
13-year-old Ella Whistler, another student at Noblesville West, was wounded but her condition is improving.
