Two children were shot at a Northern California elementary school by a gunman who then killed himself. The incident occurred at Feather River School of Seventh-Day Adventists in Palermo, with the shooter not believed to be affiliated with the school. The children were taken to hospitals, with one airlifted, and their conditions were not released. The sheriff called the shooting “horrific and tragic,” and the gunman was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Investigators are working to confirm the shooter’s identity. The school has about 35 students, who were taken to a nearby church to be reunited with their parents. Palermo is around 73 miles north of Sacramento. The incident is still under investigation, with many questions remaining unanswered. Please check back for updates as the story develops.
