'We heard what sounded like binders dropping.' Two students describe scene at Santa Clarita high school amid reported shooting this morning: 'We had no idea where we were going to go, we just knew to get out.'
At least six people were taken to hospitals after a shooting at a high school in Southern California Thursday morning, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department. A suspect has been taken into custody as terrified students evacuate the campus and reunite with their parents.
The shooting began at 7:05 a.m. local time, during what's called"Zero Period," roughly an hour before the school day officially begins at 8 a.m. and is often used for extracurricular classes and was before the bulk of the students were there for the start of the school day, police told ABC News. "I never thought this would happen at my school," Moreno said."I'm still kinda in shock right now. I’ve been shaking and crying a lot -- I’m an emotional wreck."
Students were led single file through the campus by armed officers. Multiple ambulances were spotted at the scene as worried parents jammed the streets. "We were all getting there and parents heard shots -- or what we thought were shots," Wolf told ABC News."The nice guy who waves us in the lot every morning started shouting at the kids walking to get out of the way get up the hill. ...We were all trying to get out. People were confused."
