    18 Year Old Student Hurt In Charlotte High School Shoot-out
    January 16, 2008 11:42 a.m. EST



    Vittorio Hernandez - AHN News Writer
    Charlotte, NC (AHN) - An 18-year old student was hurt when a gunman sprayed the Crossroads Charter High School in north Charlotte with bullets. The incident happened Wednesday at around 10 a.m. at the parking lot while the students were dismissed after exams.

    One person was arrested in the drive-by shooting, according to the school principal. Charlotte police are still hunting for two more suspects who fled immediately the school grounds aboard a blue Ford Explorer after the shooting incident.

    The students were herded back into their classrooms to ensure their safety. Crossroads Charter has 225 students distributed from grades 9 through 12. It is located on N. Tryon Street.

    CHARLOTTE -- A student at a Charlotte charter school has been shot in the shoulder, but is expected to survive.

    Charlotte-Mecklenburg police said officers arrested a suspect not long after Wednesday's shooting, which took place in the parking lot of Crossroads Charter High School around 10 a.m.

    Police are also looking for two more suspects.

    The school's principal told WCNC-TV the shooting happened as students were being dismissed for the day due to testing.

    They were brought back inside after the shooting.

    Thanks Old Colts. Normally this kind of news would be breaking news and all over the networks by now. This is mighty close to the SC border, and the SC primary is on the skyline when all kinds of voters are going to the polls.

    How is it that a drive-by shooting where a school has been sprayed by gunfire, and one student shot, all of a sudden disappears from the headlines? Would it be because that presidential candidates weak on gun control would lose votes? Would it be because the alleged shooter is black and Obama being the media's darling losing votes? Why would the American public ordinarily be hammered to death with up to the minute news broadcastings when we have a school shooting? Fair and Balanced news, huh?

    Kimi, 20 or 30 years ago I would have looked at your questions and called you paranoid. Today, with George Soros openly trying to buy public opinion and with the news media largely owned by a small group of very liberal people, I tend to agree with your point. Something is fishy.

    Ten years ago I would have thought the same thing, River Rat. [:D]

    Beach: Thank you, sir.

    So much for your conspiracy theory, kimi.
    It is all over the news wire. I live in the STL and I heard about it.
    It is also on the AP "breaking news" wire.

    Got a link, pistoljim? Which TV network is running it?

    Sorry to disappoint you pistoljim, maybe it was too big for them to stop. When a story like this breaks, there is not a two hour lapse in coverage by the major networks. The facts are that the internet was buzzing with what happened with the story. Let's just hope the news continues in full force - I still have not been able to get the news you are talking about. Which TV network is running it? I am just now tuning back in as I have been out of the house for the last half hour or so.

    Exactly where was this "buzzing" going on? The story never went anywhere. First you say the story was "squashed" and now you are saying "it was too big for them to stop. Make up your mind.

    Take the tinfoil hats off, fellas, it's cutting off the circulation to your brains. What makes a single person being shot worthy of being a NATIONAL news story? ZOMG, a single person got shot and NBC didn't immediately interrupt normal programming to let us know? It MUST be a liberal conspiracy!!!

    Where's the news reporting of the story pistoljim? Huh? Post a link. Which TV network is running it?? You are the one, pistoljim, that said the story was all over the news! Where is it at? If you read my post, I told you that I had been out of the house. That was to mean away from the TV, okay? Now post a link and "back up your claim" that thius story is being reported, or tell us which TV network is giving us minute by minute BREAKING NEWS that is ordinarily associated with this kind of incident!

    You take the tinfoil hat off. School grounds sprayed with gunfire, and a student shot is not news? Crawl back under your rock.

    I'm not trying anything wiseguy. I made it very clear in my first post to you that I had been out. Can't you read? As for the "internet buzzing" note, that has to do with the communications I have going on with other parties.

    Also the link you have posted was when the story broke. Now give us some details about it since then, okay? There has been a school shooting, a kid was shot by gunfire. The suspect they pictured on Fox was black, and supposedly, two other suspects are at large. Where is the all the up to date news you reported in your first post? Since you can't produce any, the questions I posed are still legitimate.

    It was your fourth post that you said you were away from your house.
    Can you read? Show me where I said "up to date news". I said that the story is out there and not "squashed", like you said it was.
    Here is an updated story link for you:

    The out of the house note was in response to your post! Can't you read?

    I am the one that reported this as breaking news, pistoljim, not you! You made a post that did nothing more than parrot the story at the links I had made - in effect your posting was totally useless and lent absolutely nothing essential to the story that I had reported as being squashed! If the story has not been squashed, pistoljim, then by all means, shed some light on this issue in addition to what was initially reported. The very fact that you made the post you did would lead any reasonable person to believe that you had additional news. YOU DON'T! Your posting also is misleading because you said it was all over the news - it ain't! Hence the up-to-date note I made. So now you should know that you did not add anything to the story, and that the up to the minute type news such stories would ordinarily gethas, indeed, been squashed. Hello?

    Show me where I said I had breaking news. I will say it again, I was
    simply saying that the story was not SQUASHED.
    Did you read the last link that I provided? It tells the name of the
    guy that was in custody. That is "breaking news"!
    You keep asking me if I can read. I think it is you that needs to learn how to read. I will give you this though, you sure are good at
    trying to spin my posts to prove your point.(but not quite good enough)

    You made a post that was basically meaningless as I have previously noted, and you call that spin? Right.

    pistoljim you did say it was on the AP breaking news wire. A reasonable person would understand that is breaking news. You do sound like you have something against kimi. I would advise you to take a mydol and cease your efforts to prove whatever it is you are trying to prove. Kimi is a respected member of this forum who has contributed much over the years. I hope you have as much to bring to this forum as kimi has already brought. Have a very nice Second Amendment Day. Beach
