Noblesville middle school shooting: The latest of what we know

Scene near Noblesville High School on Friday, May 25, 208, after shooting at  Noblesville West Middle School.

A teacher and a student were injured in a shooting May 25 at Noblesville West Middle School, and a male student was arrested. Here's is the latest information:  

The Noblesville school shooting suspect had two handguns

The shooting began shortly after 9 a.m. A boy asked to be excused from class and returned with two handguns, Noblesville Police Chief Kevin Jowitt said.

What prompted the shooting and how events unfolded in the classroom are still unclear.

Hamilton County Prosecutor D. Lee Buckingham announced June 5 that Indiana law prevents the boy from being charged as an adult because of his age, 13. Buckingham said the boy would have faced 11 counts, including felony charges of attempted murder, aggravated battery and battery by means of a deadly weapon, if he were an adult.

A school resource officer was in the school at the time of the shooting and responded, though the officer's exact involvement is still unclear, as well. Police did say that the incident was resolved quickly.

The school does not have metal detectors at points of entry.

A day before the shooting at the middle school, parents of students at Riverside Intermediate School and Riverside Junior High in Fishers received an email from the school district about rumored threats about a student planning to "shoot up the school tomorrow." School officials determined that the student did not threaten the school, according to the email.
