News update says shooter is in custody. Does not appear to be an "Active Shooter" per se....but a shooting suspect who shot someone nearby and then fled into the school.
As an aside...this is one of those things that irritates me about modern law enforcement communications with the public. Every shooting is an 'Active Shooter',, just like every sudden violent assault is an "Ambush". Let's stop with the rhetorical flourishes already. We do ourselves no favors by calling things what they are not.
I don't mean you @HCM. Just the leadership and PIO types that put this stuff out.
ETA: by the way, I just saw this in a news feed and specifically came her knowing @HCM would already have posted something about it!
CNN is reporting two dead and a bunch of injured kids.
F-in POS.

UVALDE, Texas – Two children were killed, several were wounded, including an adult following a shooting Tuesday at an Uvalde elementary school, officials said.
In an update at 1:06 p.m. Tuesday, the Uvalde Police Department said the shooter was apprehended at Robb Elementary School, where the incident occurred.
According to a Facebook post from Uvalde Memorial Hospital, two students were brought in dead on arrival. They also said several students are being treated in the emergency room
I really hope it’s just a person that fled into the school and was caught there, but why two completely different scenarios?
