# One student hurt in Georgia school shooting, teen held 2026-08-13T03:51:58+00:00 | World & Diplomacy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet A shooting at Warner Robins High School in Georgia on Wednesday wounded one ninth-grade student and led to the arrest of a teenage suspect, also a ninth-grader, about an hour later in a nearby neighbourhood. The incident occurred around 2:15 pm when a verbal argument in a school bathroom escalated into a physical fight and then a shooting, the Houston County Sheriff Matt Moulton said. The injured student was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening wounds. A school resource officer applied tourniquets on the spot. The sheriff said the school's threat protocol was followed perfectly, and dozens of law enforcement officers responded. The suspect was caught without further incident about 800 metres from the school. The school will remain closed for students on Thursday and Friday, with crisis counselling available. It is not yet known whether the school had metal detectors, and the sheriff declined to answer questions, citing the ongoing investigation. ## Coverage - thehindu.com Tags: Georgia school shooting, school safety, student injured, teen suspect, United States, Warner Robins Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/one-student-hurt-in-georgia-school-shooting-teen-held/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
