Atlanta School Shooting: 1 Student Shot At Price Middle School
Atlanta School Shooting: 1 Student Shot At Price Middle School
Another day, another string of shootings across America.
According to reports, a student was shot at Price Middle School in Atlanta Thursday afternoon, Atlanta police sources say.
One teacher was also injured, but not shot, sources said.
The teen's condition is not known.
Sources on Thursday told an Atlanta TV station that one person is in police custody.
Police sources initially told Atlanta's WSB-TV the shooting took place at nearby Carver High School.
This is the second shooting of the day in the U.S.
A prosecutor in North Texas was shot and killed outside a courthouse building.
According to the Associated Press, the shooting occurred just before 9 a.m. on Thursday outside a building across from the main Kaufman County courthouse.
Both shootings come a day after a high-profile shooting in Chicago, where Hadiya Pendleton, a 15-year-old girl who performed at the inauguration with her high school band, was shot on a few blocks away from her school. The shooting occurred only a few blocks from Barack Obama’s former home in an upscale neighborhood, which has led many to conclude this shooting was “not normal.”
Also on Tuesday was a shooting in Arizona.
