WHAT THE F UCK???
Man, this is getting old
Gunman storms school, kills female students
Three killed at the scene before shooter took his own life, police say
NICKEL MINES, Pa. - A 32-year-old truck driver took about a dozen girls hostage in a one-room Amish schoolhouse Monday, barricaded the doors and shot to death at least three of the girls and then himself, authorities said. Seven other girls were taken to hospitals with gunshot wounds, some to the head.
It was the nation?s third deadly school shooting in less than a week, and similar to an attack just days earlier at a school in Colorado.
Lancaster County Coroner G. Gary Kirchner initially reported that six people were killed, but later said he wasn?t certain. Police said they found four people, including the gunman, dead in the schoolhouse.
The gunman, identified as Charles Carl Roberts, had been in the school for about 45 minutes before police arrived, State Police Commissioner Jeffrey Miller said.
Roberts called 911, threatening to shoot if the police didn?t leave, Miller said. When police tried to call Roberts? cell phone, shots rang out inside.
Officers had to break windows to get into the school. By then, three young girls had been killed ?execution-style? and the gunman was dead, Miller said.
The wounded included three girls, all critical and ages 6 through 12.
