The principal at Weston School was shot Friday morning by a former student who entered the school armed with multiple weapons.


The district says that Principal John Klang was shot, but would not confirm his condition.

Reedsburg Medical Center has confirmed that that one person has been MedFlighted to Madison.

The school is in lockdown.


Richland County Sheriff Chief Deputy Tom Hougan was at the scene outside the school.



"The students are safe," Hougan said. "The scene is secure."

Sauk County authorities say a suspect has been taken to a law enforcement facility in Baraboo.



Weston School is an elementary through high school, and the victim is the principal for all grade levels.

You're right.

But don't hold your breath.
