Report: Student Gunman Holding Up to 10 Hostages in California High School
Friday, September 28, 2007
Police are negotiating with a student gunman who fired shots inside a northern California high school.
Up to 10 students are being held in the bandroom at Las Plumas High School in Oroville, Calif. by a student with a gun, according to preliminary and unconfirmed reports from the police scanner. No injuries have been reported.
A dispatcher at the Butte County Sheriff’s Department says a 911 call came into authorities just after 9 a.m.
He said deputies are talking to the student and trying to negotiate with him to put down the gun.
A message posted on the Oroville Union High School District’s Web site says all six schools in the district are on lockdown.
“There is an incident at the Las Plumas High School campus,” the message said. “The Butte County Sheriff’s Office has the campus under control.”
