Hard news out of Cleveland: School shooting

Eyes are turning toward Cleveland this afternoon for breaking news after a gunman opened fire at a downtown high school.

Mayor Frank Jackson said three young people and two adults were hurt, according to the Associated Press. Cleveland.com is reporting four people were shot, and one girl was hurt leaving the building.

SuccessTech Academy had been secured and there was only one suspect, he said.

"They have the shooter," Jackson said. He did not elaborate.

Cleveland has been on the radar of baseball fans since the Indians defeated the New York Yankees to face the Red Sox in the upcoming playoffs. Game 1 of the series is this Friday in Boston.
