Student Shot at California High School
By IAN LOVETT
LOS ANGELES — One student was shot at a California high school Thursday morning and another student was taken into custody, according to law enforcement officials.
Around 9, the Kern County Sheriff’s Office received calls about a gunman on campus at Taft Union High School, in a rural area of the state about 120 miles north of Los Angeles.
One student, a male, was shot in the chest area and airlifted to the hospital in Bakersfield, according to Ray Pruitt, a spokesman for the sheriff’s office.
Another male student was taken into custody, and a shotgun was found at the scene, Mr. Puritt said. No more information about the victim’s condition was immediately available.
Initially, the sheriff’s office said two students had been shot. But Mr. Pruitt said officials now believed the second student was not hit by gunfire but had a “stress-related reaction to the shooting.”
