A sheriff says the shooter at a Maryland high school has died after a school resource officer fired at him.
St. Mary’s County Tim Cameron told a news conference Tuesday morning that the shooter and the officer both fired a round and it wasn’t known if the officer’s bullet killed the suspect.
Cameron says a female student and a male student were also wounded in the shooting in a hallway at Great Mills High School in southern Maryland.

Parents/Guardians should go to Leonardtown HS for reunification with GMHS students
The principal at the Maryland high school where there was a shooting Tuesday morning told parents last month that the school had investigated threats of a possible shooting and found they were “not substantiated.”
Great Mills High School Principal Jake Heibel told parents that school officials interviewed two students in February who were overheard mentioning a school shooting and found that they posed no threat. His letter was posted on the local news site The Bay Net.
But Heibel said the school still increased its security after social media posts about a possible school shooting “circulated quite extensively.”
The incident occurred at Great Mills High School in St. Mary’s County about two hours south of Baltimore. St. Mary’s sheriff asked parents not to come to the school.
We are closely monitoring the situation at Great Mills High School. @MDSP is in touch with local law enforcement and ready to provide support. Our prayers are with students, school personnel, and first responders.— Governor Larry Hogan (@GovLarryHogan) March 20, 2018
The ATF’s Baltimore Field Division took to Twitter to report special agents have been dispatched to the scene.

My comments: When Authorities get SERIOUS about School Shootings, the would be Perpetrators, will not be able to get into the Schools at all. Until then, more Students will be Killed or Wounded.
