Principal Killed

Wisconsin student kills principal at school

A teenager who pried open his family's gun cabinet brought two weapons to school Friday and shot the principal to death after a struggle with adults and other students, authorities said.

Eric Hainstock, 15, was arrested and charged as an adult with murder, the district attorney said. No one else was hurt.

The shooting came one day after the principal gave him a disciplinary warning for having tobacco, according to a criminal complaint.

Witnesses said the student walked in with the shotgun before classes began. A custodian, teachers and students wrestled with him, but he broke through, took out the handgun and shot Weston Schools Principal John Klang, 49, three times, Sheriff Randy Stammen said.

The custodian said the teen was a special-education student who told him he was there to kill someone.
