Thanks for the facts. BTW, where is this school located exactly? I’m not familiar with Virginia at all.

There are woods behind us. He may have been heading there. I wonder if they got the gunman.

The Hospital is shot down so I think it has to be more.

If this is a girlfriend dispute, why does there appear to be multiple shooters?
