Lock Down

I was studying for my finals this afternoon and I felt like I should check online at the news. Wow, was I surprised to see that Roseville had 2 elementary schools on lock down. I knew when I saw that headline one was Echo's school. I was a little freaked because I did not know what was going on. I tried to call Mick but he was not available. I went next door to see if it was on the news but they were busy too. We don't own a TV so that was the reason for going next door.
I called the school and they were a little less than informed so I finally called the district office but again not to informative. I finally continued to refresh the news page to be updated. Its been about 4 hours and I guess we will have to wait to get the real information because the 4 local stations had conflicting information.
I think there was a gun toting man across the street from the school who held a women hostage, he was captured soon after the police arrived but they could not find the women till several hours later barricaded in a room.
I am so grateful that Echo and her friends were safe and that the school reacted in they way they did. Many thanks to those who kept our kids safe.
