Deadly Shootings At Amish School

A gunman killed "a number" of people at a one-room Amish schoolhouse Today in Pennsylvania's Lancaster County. The shooter was among the many dead, and a number of people were injured.

Police surrounded the one-room school late Monday morning, and the Lancaster County 911 Web site reported that dozens of emergency units were dispatched to a "medical emergency" at 10:45 a.m.

It was reported that a man entered the schoolhouse this morning and began to make threats. The man apparently took hostages and began negotiations with the police. At some point, at least 10 shots were fired within the school, then the hostage taker shot himself.

This makes the third shooting within thirty days, and shows that the population of crazy cowards is on the rise.
