A law enforcement official said the shooter, who is dead, was from New Jersey and had ties to Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown. Authorities recovered a Glock and Sig Sauer 9mm handgun, but it was unclear who killed the shooter, who wore black combat garb and a military vest. Local news outlets report that the shooting occurred inside a kindergarten classroom, and that all the pupils in that classroom are unaccounted for. An official with knowledge of the situation said the 20-year-old gunman, whose name has not been released, also had a .223-caliber rifle. The motive is not yet known. Police are also questioning another man in connection with the shooting. Witnesses told the Connecticut Post that a handcuffed man, dressed in camouflage, was led out of a nearby woods by officers. Shortly after 9:40 a.m., authorities reported that a shooter was in the main office of the school. A person in one room had "numerous gunshot wounds," police told the Hartford Courant. A dispatcher at the Newtown Volunteer Ambulance Corps said a teacher was shot in the foot and taken to Danbury Hospital. Local news outlets also reported that the principal was among those shot. Parent Lisa Procaccini told Fox News that her daughter was sitting in a classroom when she and others heard gun shots. "She was in a small class -- a reading group and they started hearing bangs," Procaccini said. "Her teacher, and I’m grateful for this, rushed kids into the bathroom and locked the door. They told kids it was hammering and tried to keep them calm.” "Children were crying," Procaccini said. "She did tell me about a little boy that was in a police officer’s arms, bleeding. I don’t know if she gets it." The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said two firearms were recovered from the scene. " - People are so messed up. Red88FF DEC 14, 01:49 PM Wow! Fairfield CT used to be my home Celthora87GT DEC 14, 02:29 PM Saw this and thought "here come the end of the world nutjobs" Sad he had to do it let alone to a bunch of children... rogergarrison DEC 14, 02:38 PM WOW. I dont have any idea what can be done to stop these nut cases either. Guns arent the cause, its the sick worthless people thats being raised these days. These people will use any means they can find if they dont use guns. You can bet the anti gun people will be all over this like grass on a lawn. dsnover DEC 14, 02:46 PM God, take the hand of those little ones who come to you, as they are scared and may not know you. Be with the families, ease their suffering. ... Animal scumbag shooter was enabled by the politicians, school policies, etc, who basically handed him a 'defenseless victim zone', A.K.A. 'Gun Free School Zone'. These animals KNOW they won't be stopped, since that sort of law only applies to the law abiding. And already, there are calls for more gun control. IDIOTS. Double-down on FAILURE. Here's a clue: MURDER IS ALREADY ILLEGAL IN ALL 50 STATES! And somehow THAT didn't stop this whack-job. Enough is enough. Train and arm some of the teachers, and this sort of thing won't happen, or at least the body count will be much lower. There's a reason criminals don't go into police stations to commit mass-murder. Or gun shows. rogergarrison DEC 14, 02:58 PM These college aged killers are really just turning it into a sick contest. Looks like the idea is to see who can get the highest body count.
