    It is a one room school in Bart Township near Christiana PA which is South of Lancaster. Not too many details have been released yet. The shooter has apparently killed himself.
    This is about 30 minutes from me. I am in Lancaster County.

    6 people have been confirmed dead
    1 10 year old female has 1 gunshot wound to the head and 1 to the arm
    1 11 year old female
    2 others both in critical condition.
    3 more are arriving with no details on their condition
    Not all children are accounted for. There were about 27-30 children in the school at the time.

    That's such horrible news, I am in PA but not in Lancaster and it's very disturbing to hear things like this.

    Now they say 3 were killed and 7 injured. They said that all the boys were left go, along with a pregnant teacher and a few aids with small children. They did say that there were approximately 10-12 girls and 15 boys in the class at that time. I am watching the press conference now. They just said that all the girls were shot.

    There was something going on in a Las Vegas school today too but I didn't catch the whole story. So sad.
