Ohio: 4 injured in school shooting

Washington, Mar 1 (IBNS) At least four children were injured as 14-year-old allegedly opened fire in an Ohio school cafeteria on Monday, media reports said.

The suspect has been taken into custody.

Two of the victims were shot, Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones was quoted as saying by CNN.

The other two were injured "either by shrapnel from the handgun or by injuries getting away from the active shooter," he told the news channel.

The incident occurred in Madison Junior-Senior High School in Middletown, Ohio.

The sheriff identified the suspected gunman as James Austin Hancock.

He was taken into custody outside of the school, and faces charges as a juvenile of attempted murder, felonious assault, inducing panic, and making terroristic threats, Jones told the news channel.
