Student shot in Atlanta middle school.

Last edited Thu Jan 31, 2013, 08:17 PM - Edit history (2)

Relieved parents were reunited with their children Thursday afternoon, hours after a shooting at an Atlanta school.
The 14-year-old student shot in the head outside Price Middle School is “alert, conscious and breathing,” Atlanta police spokesman Carlos Campos said.
The shooting occurred just before 2 p.m. in southeast Atlanta, north of the Lakewood area.
An armed police resource officer apprehended the suspect, also a student at the school, “within minutes,” authorities said during an afternoon news conference.

and the school's Resource officer took the shooter down. Sounds like the shooter is another student who got a gun in despite metal detectors.
