3 injured in Maryland high school shooting - MAR 20, 2018

3 injured in Maryland high school shooting
By ASSOCIATED PRESS MAR 20, 2018 7:20 AM GREAT MILLS, MD.

A shooting at a Maryland high school Tuesday morning injured three people, including the shooter, a sheriff's spokeswoman said.

Authorities said the situation at Great Mills High School was "contained" as deputies and federal agents converged on the scene.

St. Mary's County Sheriff spokeswoman Cpl. Julie Yingling said three people were hurt, including the shooter. She didn't know the extent of their injuries, but said all three were taken to hospitals alive.

A student told the Baltimore Sun that the shooting happened around 8 a.m. Terrence Rhames, 18, said he heard a gunshot and saw a girl fall as he ran for an exit. "I just thank God I'm safe," Rhames said. "I just want to know who did it and who got injured."

Poor, terrorized students in St. Mary's Co., MD and all over. My heart goes out to them and their communities.

Republican Maryland Governor Larry Hogan said he was monitoring events at the school. "Our prayers are with students, school personnel, and first responders," he said in a statement.

Wonder how high the NRA rates this guy?

Hogan received $4K from them in 2015 according to this source, but I don't know his NRA rating.

"Thoughts and prayers".... The gun lobby and killing madness must end in this country!
