It has been a very busy morning for Cumberland County emergency personnel.  Deputies were called to Uplands Village Memory Care Facility in Pleasant Hill this morning for a shooting report.

There, a man had shot and killed his wife who was in the memory care facility and then took his own life. Pleasant Hill Elementary was put on soft lockdown due to the shooting.  Cumberland County High School was also put on soft lockdown this morning but the reason is a little murky.  A call to CCHS resulted in officials saying the lockdown was for a ‘community situation’.

At Brown Elementary this morning a student was struck by a vehicle.  Fortunately, the student suffered only mild injuries of scrapes and scratches.  There were at least two more suicides reported this morning but no information has been released on them.
