MOUNT HOREB, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul says police shot and killed a student outside a middle school after receiving a report of someone with a weapon. He said no one else was hurt and the student didn’t get inside the building. Kaul spoke Wednesday evening at the first law enforcement briefing on an incident that sent children fleeing amid gunshots earlier in the day. Authorities in Mount Horeb had previously said an active shooter who never got inside was “neutralized” outside the district’s middle school building Wednesday. Kaul said that while police used deadly force, he didn’t say how many officers fired weapons or whether the student had fired a weapon.
