My nieces go to school in New Milford; my mom told me their school is only about ten miles from where the shooting took place. That is just way too close for comfort.

The Bethel ambulance just dispatched out of here with sirens, headed in direction of Newtown. We have a resource sharing agreement, so they may just be covering their regular traffic.

from photos at scene, Oxford's ambulance service (other side of town) dispatched TO the scene.

From Twitter, the Danbury mayor called in the police second shift early to backfill for the nieghboring towns.

My immediate reaction to this article was that a parent (likely a father) was upset about a custody battle of some kind... anyone else?

(also, OP, please put all the updates under a cut as I suspect it's going to get long fast)

Would you rather have me do spoiler cuts for now?

Spoiler cuts or lj cuts are both fine as they'll both keep the article from being super long on people's friends lists etc.
