The incident occurred on January 15, leading to a code-red lockdown. Superintendent Chris Ragsdale expressed condolences and emphasized the need to identify students needing help. This marks the third shooting on a Cobb County School District campus in the past year.

STORY 2: Marietta Domestic Violence Shelter to Open Pet Sanctuary LiveSafe Resources in Marietta is adding four pet shelter units to its 40-bed emergency shelter, allowing domestic violence survivors to bring their pets. This initiative addresses a significant barrier, as many victims delay leaving abusive situations due to concerns for their pets' safety. About 47% of victims hesitate to leave, with 78% facing threats to their pets. The $230,000 project, funded by grants and donations, includes amenities like heating, cooling, and outdoor play areas. This addition aims to remove barriers for survivors seeking safety, emphasizing the importance of keeping families and pets together.
