A MALE student armed with several weapons shot the principal of his
school in western Wisconsin today, a school official said.

The student was taken into custody by police and did not harm any
students, school district employee Kathy Stoltz said.

Principal John Klang, who oversees the Weston school district in
Cazenovia, was taken away by helicopter ambulance, and the school was
being evacuated, she said.

"All the students are safe," Ms Stoltz said, adding that the motive for
the shooting was unclear.

On Wednesday, a homeless man in Colorado held several female students
hostage at a school before shooting one to death and then killing
himself as police closed in.
