School Update,
According to FoxNews
The school was bringing some students out by bus, said Selena Manychildren, a spokeswoman for the emergency services department of the Navajo Nation, where the school is located. The students were headed to a nearby building,
It's not known how many students were inside the school.
About six parents were waiting word at the Cornfield Chapter House, which is 15 miles from the high school.
Marilyn Begay, an office specialist at the house, was counseling concerned parents while worrying about her 16-year-old son, a student at Ganado High. Begay said her son usually arrives home at mid-afternoon by school bus. When he did not show up, a panicked Begay called another parent and heard about a possible hostage situation at the school.
Begay is unsure if her son is safe and said the incident should have school administrators rethinking campus security.
"I have brought this up before. They don't have enough security. It's pretty sad that our kids are not being watched. There's supposed to be security everywhere in the school building which I kind of requested."
In the meantime, Begay is hoping to hear news from the school or her 21-year-old daughter, who drove out to the scene.
Ganado, a community of 1,500 people on Navajo Nation land, is 315 miles northeast of Phoenix.
Still waiting to see more info..
