\n \n One of the three University of Virginia football players shot dead as they returned from a field trip last month was on the phone with his mother just before the shooting, she told NBC.\n <\/p>\n \n D’Sean Perry, 22, had been talking to his mom, Happy Perry, but \u201chis cell phone had gone dead,\u201d his mother told NBC in an interview published online Wednesday.\n <\/p>\n \n \u201cI had just gotten off the phone with him,\u201d Happy Perry told NBC, before pausing and then repeating as tears fell: \u201cI had just gotten off the phone with him.\u201d\n <\/p>\n \n \u201cI’m broken,\u201d she said.\n <\/p>\n \n The comments came as D’Sean Perry’s parents, Happy and Sean Perry, are making their first round of interviews since their last and two of his teammates were killed November 13. A fellow student opened fire on the bus as it returned to campus from a class field trip to Washington, DC, killing D’Sean Perry, Devin Chandler and Lavel Davis Jr. and injuring two other students, authorities said.\n <\/p>\n \n Meantime, a student injured in the attack recalled having \u201clocked eyes\u201d with the gunman before he was shot, he told ABC this week.\n <\/p>\n \n \u201cI don’t know, it was like a numb look, and you know, in that moment, I just dropped everything and took off running,\u201d University of Virginia football player Mike Hollins said.\n <\/p>\n \n The UVA attack was among more than 620 mass shootings this year in the US \u2013 including last month at a Virginia grocery store and an LGBTQ club in Colorado \u2013 and one of more than 75 shootings on school campuses in 2022, according to tallies by CNN and the Gun Violence Archive; mass shootings involve at least four wounded, not including the shooter.\n <\/p>\n
