A 14-year-old suspect is dead following a confrontation with police Wednesday after an active shooter was reported outside a Wisconsin middle school, sources told ABC News.

The teen had approached Mount Horeb Middle School with what appeared to be a long gun, the sources said.

The suspect was a male student in the Mount Horeb Area School District, according to Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul. A vehicle associated with the suspect was being searched for evidence by bomb technicians, according to sources.

Officers from the Mount Horeb Police Department responded to a report of an “individual with a weapon outside the middle school” and used deadly force, Kaul said during a press briefing Wednesday evening. More

  1. This story is so bare-bones that no conclusion can be reached yet. He may have been on his way to the dump to shoot rats with a BB gun for all we can tell so far.

  2. Mt Horeb is a quaint and sleepy little town with a still-operational A&W. It is known for all of the gnomes scattered around the town as decoration and identity. It’s not far from our family farm…. praise God no one was attacked.

  3. I agree with Doug Wakeman.

    So… the police were there before the kid — who presumably was waving around his long gun? — even got to the door?

    And 14-yr-old had a car, being searched now for bombs? And nothing happened but the FBI is on the scene?

  4. I’m suspicious that this is another FiBbIe psychotropic drug grooming on a less than stellar young’un set up to take the fall for a school mass shooting.

    Prove me wrong.
