Updated Title Again, Sorry: School Shooting, Two Arrested
http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/story?section=news/local&id=8403566
No one was killed, but one student was injured. The gun still hasn't been recovered and no arrests have been made, so I'm hoping nothing else happens before they find it and him/her.
It happened at Cape Fear High and Mac Williams Middle School.
If you can offer any positive vibes, T&Ps, whatever you do that the kids and staff all remain safe, it'd be appreciated. Right now the schools are on lock-down and no one is allowed to leave. I know parents must be freaking out.

From what the local news was saying, I believe it was just one shooting, not two. "It happened outside Cape Fear High School and nearby Mac Williams Middle School off Clinton Road just after 1 p.m" I believe this is just saying it was near the middle school, and that school was shut down as well, as a precaution.
I dont think this was a "school shooting" but rather a shooting at a school. Semantics, I know, but with my history I make the distinction.
The student is doing "fair" http://sandhills.news14.com/content/top_stories/648595/cape-fear-high-school-student-shot-in-fair-condition
Students were cleared to go home, and the schools have been considered secured. They dont even know what the reason for the shooting, although are still looking into it (obviously)
My T&P are going out to the student and her family, as well as the other kids there.
I changed my name
When I first posted, the article hadn't been updated with many details and it just said shooting at both schools. With only one student injured I wasn't sure exactly what happened so that's why I put 'apparently' in the title. I wasn't sure if the shooting happened outside near both schools or if shooters had entered both schools but only harmed one student before fleeing. I'll edit the title though to make it more clear.
ETA: It was a school shooting. Two students were arrested, and the shooting was done on campus. It's still unsure if it's gang related though.
