Metal Detectors Were In Place At GA School Where Student Was Shot

By: NY1 News

A middle school in Atlanta where a 14-year-old boy was shot and wounded in the neck by a fellow student had metal detectors, and school officials were investigating how the shooter made it past them. Police swarmed Price Middle School just south of downtown Thursday afternoon minutes after reports of the shooting. A crowd of anxious parents gathered in the streets, awaiting word on their children, and later many questioned why students were kept in the locked-down school for more than two hours before being dismissed.
