WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. –– A shooting at a Roman Catholic high school left one person injured Wednesday, police said. One person was in custody.
No one was killed at Bishop Neumann High School, according to a Williamsport police official who did not give his name.
Police did not immediately release more information. Calls to the high school were not answered.
A female student was being evaluated at Williamsport Hospital, spokeswoman Linda Campbell said. The patient's status was not immediately available.
The school, which enrolls about 230 students in grades 7 through 12, is in central Pennsylvania, about 160 miles west of Philadelphia.
The shooting came two days after a teen-ager opened fire with a pistol in a school in Santee, Calif., killing two people and injuring 13.

I hate to say it, but I can't get the Boomtown Rat's song "I Don't Like Mondays" out of my head.

Now now. These things happened all the time in the 30's. They just never made the Drudge Report, that's all.
