No Charges Will Be Filed In Shooting At Mount Horeb School

The Dane County District Attorney announced Monday that police officers who fatally shot a student outside a Mount Horeb middle school will not face charges.The 14-year-old student was killed outside the school May 1st after pointing a weapon at police. The gun turned out to be an air rifle. Police were responding to a report of a person with a gun near the school. When officers arrived, they saw a large number of students sprinting from the building. The boy arrived at school in the late morning armed, but never made it inside. No one else was harmed. But the event was terrifying for students and teachers who waited for hours on lockdown to be released to their families.
