Janelle Lawrence, 15, was talking to a girlfriend a few feet away from Brown during a class change and break at about 1:45 p.m.
"I looked over and heard this big 'pow,' like a balloon popping," Lawrence said, adding that she and her friend both saw the gun.
Lawrence said the shooter ran into the boys room, where police took him into custody.
Madison School Superintendent Dr. Dee Fowler said a 911 call was placed at 1:46 p.m. It was routed to the Madison Fire Department, which staffs its trucks with paramedics, and a truck was on the scene at 1:48 p.m. A HEMSI ambulance arrived "quickly," Fire Chief Ralph Cobb said.
MedFlight was called, but the pilot vetoed a takeoff because of the rain and wind, Cobb said.
