The principal, 50-year-old Sam LaCara, was shot in the chest and taken to a local hospital, but was pronounced dead shortly after, he said, appealing for privacy for his family.

Anxious parents rushed to the school after it was locked down around 10:30 am, but their children were not allowed out until the all-clear was given after the arrest at his home of a janitor, named as John Luebbers.
