2 students wounded in Philadelphia charter high school shooting

This is the first I’ve seen a shooting at a charter school.  Usually these are the better schools.  

ChicagoTribune reports two students were shot and wounded on Friday at a charter high school in northern Philadelphia, police said, in the latest string of school shootings that have helped fuel a national debate over gun laws.

The injuries were not believed to be life-threatening, according to Philadelphia Police spokeswoman Christine O'Brien.

  Investigators have not said who fired the shots. A boy was taken into custody, but later cleared, said Philadelphia Police Lieutenant John Stanford.

"Initially, he was thought to be the shooter, but investigators were able to determine the kid was not a shooter, Stanford said. "He was there but I don't believe he was involved."

Another boy turned himself in and was being interviewed by police late Friday night, Stanford said. A third boy was also supposed to turn himself in, but had not yet done so.
