Several people were stabbed Wednesday morning at a high school near Pittsburgh, and a suspect was taken into custody, an emergency official said.

Dan Stevens, the spokesman for Westmoreland County emergency management, said five or six people were reported stabbed at about 7:20 a.m. at Franklin Regional High School in Murrysville, about 15 miles east of Pittsburgh.

It wasn't immediately clear if the suspect and the victims are students, adults or a mix of both. It doesn't appear that any of the victims suffered life-threatening injuries, Stevens said, though several helicopters were seen flying people from the scene to area hospitals.

I was going to say his initials are probably JC.

A Daily Mail news article has a photo they claim is the 16-year-old student who did the stabbing.

If that photo is correct, then the stabber is obviously white, and it wasn’t a racist crime. Maybe some crazy kid on meds?

The rampage lasted for over 30 minutes. 30 MINUTES. Where were the school officials and police during this time???

Is it just me or is this a collosal display of agency incompetence??

Drinking coffee, eating donuts and reading the paper? Union rules buddy. Stabbings before the first recess are not in the contract.

Very clever. I gave up on the show when I found myself saying “You’ve got to be kidding” over and over and over

Thanks for update.

More info on the stabber. Two parent family; neighbors say nice quiet family. Seen the kid play street hockey. He has an older brother at FR HS.

On Twitter the name is staying consistent. Kids saying they didn’t know him.

Watching the local news...saying the stabber was bullied.

Heartbreaking all around.

Anyone know if it could have been Obammmas son that did this or was it another race that don’t matter to Babbles?

“School officials? Bust his head with a desk or a chair.”

In a zero tolerance world, the person who neutralized and or disarmed the assailant would have been gotten expelled and charged with felony assault and possession of a weapon.

“Anyone wanna bet the perp is on some form of meds for depression or some other Rx the schools felt were necessary for the continued well being of the child?”

As far as I know no school prescribes medicine. They may boot your child out until he sees a psychologist but, for legal reasons, they won’t even recommend drugs.
