Two Gunmen at Elementary School Shooting
20 Children Died in School Massacre …
A shooting involving two gunmen erupted at a Connecticut elementary school this morning, prompting the town of Newtown to lock down all of its schools and draw SWAT teams to the school, authorities said today.
State Police confirm that one shooter is dead. A second gunman is apparently at large and multiple people have been shot, sources told ABC News.
The shooting occurred at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, about 12 miles east of Danbury.

This happens every time. The situation is chaotic, people think they see things, the details aren't complete. As they get hashed out things change, and they quit reporting on the stuff they got wrong. They also reported the wrong guy, the wrong amount of people that were killed...edit on 14-12-2012 by Domo1 because: (no reason given)
A second gunman is apparently at large and multiple people have been shot, sources told ABC News.

Apparently isn't confirmation. It's like saying that there may be someone else. Again, reporters also got the number of victims wrong, the name of the shooter wrong etc and I don't see them doing anything but changing the information to reflect what they know.

It was initially reported by at least 3 different media outlets that there was a second shooter. Although, they each stated something differently.
One was a van or a truck with the back window possibly blown out.
One was dogs chasing someone through the woods.
And one even stated that the police had apprehended someone who claimed he did not do anything.
Then BOOM.
One shooter.
Just like in Oregon a few days ago.
Just like in Colorado in July.
These poor innocent children were slain, and it seems theres a F#$**ING coverup of at least some sort.
SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
17.59 (12.59)The scene outside Sandy Hook Elementary School is now an all too familiar one in modern America: swarms of police cars in the car park, heavily-armed officers from the SWAT team patrolling the area and new helicopters circling overhead.
