A teenager shot and wounded two children and a teacher at an elementary school in South Carolina, before being taken into custody on Wednesday, police said at a news conference.

The shooting happened early in the afternoon at Townville Elementary School in Anderson County, located near the Georgia state line about 100 miles (160 km) northeast of Atlanta. The circumstances of the shooting are not known but a dead body was found on a dirt road near the school, the local coroner told CBS News.

The two injured students were airlifted to the hospital and the teacher was driven by ambulance, police said. Other students were loaded onto busses and evacuated to a nearby church, local media said.

One child was flown to Greenville Memorial Hospital’s emergency trauma center, health system spokeswoman Sandy Dees said. Further details were not immediately available.

Reuters could not immediately reach the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office for comment.

About 280 students attend the school and 64 percent receive subsidized lunches, according to online real estate database company Zillow.

What does the percentage of free lunch recipients have to do with this?
 
Cause you know all the poor folks that shoot up schools qualify for free lunch.o_O

Well, I'm glad they figured that out, I guess the thing to do is stop serving free lunches, problem solved.

:fish:

A homeschooled South Carolina teenager shot and killed his father Wednesday before opening fire on a nearby elementary school playground, injuring two students and a teacher, local authorities said.

He didn't even go to school why the everloving hell did he go there and shoot it up?

It wasn't their fault he was homeschooled!

Good god. I hope it wasn't one of the lunch payers that got shot!

*rolls eyes. That journalist is a fucking moron.
 
A minute before a teen allegedly opened fire at an elementary school playground in South Carolina, he called his grandparents' cellphone, sobbing and mumbling unintelligibly, authorities say.

It was 1:44 p.m. local time.
His grandparents could barely hear the 14-year-old because of his crying, CNN affiliate WYFF reported. So they headed next door, where he lived, to check on him.

But instead of the teen, the grandparents found the body of their son -- his father. Their grandson was nowhere to be found, according to the affiliate.

The teen allegedly drove a Dodge Ram onto school property and jumped a fence to access the playground, according to CNN affiliate WNHS. It said he never entered the school.
By the time the gunfire stopped, he'd wounded two students and a teacher, authorities say.
The teen, who was not identified because he is a minor, was taken down by a volunteer firefighter and detained by deputies.

The father, who was identified as Jeffrey Osborne, 47, suffered gunshot wounds, Anderson County Coroner Greg Shore said.

Away from the home, at the elementary school 2 miles away, one male student was critically injured with a gunshot to the leg and another boy was struck in the foot. A female teacher was wounded in the shoulder, sheriff's Capt. Garland Major said.

The teacher and one student were treated at a local health center and released Wednesday evening, hospital spokesman Ross Norton told CNN. A third victim was transported to a hospital in critical condition, officials said.

Christ, these fucking school shootings are so out of hand .. :(

Oh god..
I just heard the reason he was home schooled is because he'd been expelled from school just 2 yrs ago for bringing a gun to school ..
 
6-Year-Old Shot in South Carolina School Shooting Dies

A 6-year-old boy critically wounded in the shooting at an elementary school in Townville, South Carolina, died Saturday, according to the Anderson County coroner.

Jacob Hall, a kindergarten student at Townville Elementary School, was shot in the leg by a suspected 14-year-old gunman who opened fire at the school's outdoor playground during recess on Wednesday afternoon, officials said.

His brother, Gerald Gambrell, posted on Facebook that Jacob "will be with us forever and always in our hearts."

Dammit, @myra manes , dontcha know it's not GUNS that are the problem?

(It is the easy accessibility of firearms to people with God complexes and other mental illnesses, so basically, guns).

I fucking am so disgusted that 'Murrica has become the punchline of a global joke and this bullshit is exactly why. We are a nation of fat-assed, ill-educated slobs who care more about just "having" shit than the implications of our greediness. Just because something is your poorly-interpreted Constitutional right does not mean it is a good idea.:rolleyes:

The family of a 6-year-old boy shot at a South Carolina elementary school says a funeral is planned Wednesday, a week after he was shot as a first-grade class left for recess.

The family of Jacob Hall said the service will be at 11 a.m. Wednesday at Oakdale Baptist Church in Townville.

Family members told local news outlets that pallbearers will dress as superheroes and people attending also are encouraged to wear costumes.

Jacob died Saturday after being shot at Townville Elementary School with another student and a teacher.

The 14-year-old suspect also is charged with killing his father shortly before the shootings at the nearby school.

Classes are to resume Thursday. Teachers will report to work Tuesday for counseling and class preparation on Wednesday before classes resume.
