Authorities described the student as a juvenile male but did not provide further identification or specifics pending an investigation

Wisconsin police shot and killed a student who officials say came to a local middle school with a gun. The student never got into the school, but as a precaution the entire district was put on a lockdown late Wednesday morning.

Students have since been reunited with their parents, some of whom waited up to five hours for their children to be dropped at a bus storage center in Mount Horeb, a village about 20 miles south-west of Madison, the state capital, according to WMTV 15 news.

No other students or staff were injured in the shooting, Josh Kaul, Wisconsin’s attorney general, said during a Wednesday news conference.

    So all he did was illegally have a fire arm and he was executed for it and that’s a win in your book? Sick fuck

      As a parent speaking for every other parent in that district, yeah that’s a win. No other kids life should be risked at all. Period.

      It’s not clear if possession of a firearm on school grounds was his only offense.

      Maybe don’t jump to conclusions before all the facts are known.
