Developing situation. Saw the alert come across my phone.
Until I’m sure the reports of what may be going on are confirmed I will avoid speculating.
There are a lot of police, they are moving reporters back, and the parents are not to go to the school, there is a staging area where they can pick up their kids.

Listening to the press conference with law enforcement. The student that was shot died at the hospital.
The police chief is a lot more teary than I usually see at these things. Wonder if they have a personal connection. The County Sheriff says he’s been crying since he left the hospital from meeting with the mother of the student that died.
