Parents’ fears as sniper still at large

ANXIOUS parents accompanied their children to school or kept them at home on Tuesday, a day after a sniper linked to the murder of six adults critically wounded a school pupil.

The governor pleaded with the gunman to surrender and "stop this insane killing".

"I can't stop going to work, the children can't stop going to school", said Henry Ollie, 48, leading his 12-year-old son, Charles, to the front door of Benjamin Tasker Middle School in Bowie, where the latest shooting happened.
