On Wednesday afternoon, a shooting happened at a small religious school in Northern California, leaving two kids hurt. The shooter died after what looks like a self-inflicted gunshot, according to local sheriff officials. The exact condition of the injured children hasn’t been shared yet.
This sad event took place at Feather River School of Seventh Day Adventists in Palermo, a small town with about 5,500 people, located around 65 miles north of Sacramento. Butte County Sheriff Kory L. Honea shared that they received 911 calls about someone who was firing shots at students. They also mentioned that the shooter didn’t have any connection to the school. The reason behind the shooting is still unknown.
One of the injured kids was flown to a nearby hospital for treatment. After the incident, other students were quickly taken to the Oroville Church of the Nazarene to reunite with their families, as reported by the sheriff’s office. Feather River School has been in operation since 1965 and typically serves fewer than 40 students, according to its website.
