Update 2: One Injured in Ore. School Shooting

02.23.2006, 12:47 PM

 

 

 

A young gunman critically injured a 16-year-old in a school shooting early Thursday, then held the gun to his own head after police cornered him, authorities said.

 

Police spokesman Sgt. Aaron Dunbar said the shooter appeared to be a student. He was arrested after the attack at Roseburg High School.

 

The school went into lockdown after the shots were fired about 7:45 a.m., and administrators were preparing to send students home. The suspect was not immediately identified and no motive for the shooting was disclosed.

 

A nearby elementary school in Roseburg, a southwest Oregon town of about 21,000 residents, also was locked down as a precaution.

Saddest thing is, this kind of news isn't shocking anymore.

 

Yeah I remember when these stories were all over the news and analysts were called in to talk about it. Now the story seems to just get a passing comment.
