The New York Times reports that a gunman walked into an Amish schoolhouse: six people have, reportedly, died. Among them the gunman.
According to early reports, the gunman, described as “not a young person,” entered the school about 11 a.m. and took several girls hostage, ordering the boys to leave.
When the state police arrived on the scene – the community has no local police force-they tried to get the man, whom they addressed as “Roy,” to drop his gun. Shooting broke out, causing an unknown number of injuries.
