Another school shooting in Indiana
Suspect in custody after shots fired at Indiana middle school
By Carma Hassan and Sarah Aarthun, CNN
May 25, 2018
(CNN)At least two people were injured after a shooting Friday at a middle school in Noblesville, Indiana, police said.
A suspect is in custody after what Indiana State Police spokesman Sgt. John Perrine earlier called an active shooter incident at Noblesville West Middle School.
Perrine said via Twitter that two people were being transported to hospitals.
The school was on lockdown, said Jackie Chatteron, a receptionist for the school district.
Aerial news video showed rows of students being evacuated and escorted to school buses.
Students were being taken to Noblesville High School, where parents can pick them up, the state police said.
June 1 is the last day of school, according to the school's website.
The shooting comes a week after 10 people were killed at a school in Santa Fe, Texas.
Noblesville is about 25 miles northeast of Indianapolis.

Re: Another school shooting in Indiana
This is incredible. It happened about 20 minutes ago, but I'm not finding it on any of the networks or cable networks. They're talking about Harvey Weinstein and the FBI briefing yesterday and this and that. Have school shootings become so common that reporting them can wait for people to stop talking about Harvey Weinstein?

Yep - students are no longer talking about "if it happens at their school" but instead are discussing "when it happens at their school".

Re: Another school shooting in Indiana
Someone in an SUV just rolled on to the sidewalk and has mowed persons down, right in front of the uni. I can't believe a car could go down a sidewalk in Portland, especially without hitting anything. Our sidewalks are basically blocked from the street with continual trees, bollards, and lot's of cement, rails, stairs and other objects.

Apparently they've arrested the driver but there aren't a lot of details at this time

Today is the one year anniversary of is the one-year anniversary of a double slaying on a Portland MAX train by a white supremacist. And of course, a month ago, a man who wanted revenge on women killed seven people with his car in Toronto.
This seems to be the latest - the driver is identified and is in jail on multiple charges of attempted murder and assault.
