New Richmond High School on lockdown after student got into an altercation with a school resource officer
New Richmond High School in Clermont County briefly went into a soft lockdown on Wednesday following an altercation involving a student, according to school officials.
The incident occurred around 11 a.m. in the hallway of the high school, located in the 1100 block of Bethel-New Richmond Road, when a student got into a confrontation with a school resource officer.
The school was placed on a “brief soft lockdown” as a precaution, but it was lifted shortly after the situation was resolved, according to New Richmond Schools.
Officials have not yet disclosed what disciplinary actions the student may face.
Emergency services in Queens responded to a multi-casualty incident (MCI) late Thursday involving a major motor vehicle accident on the Kosciuszko Bridge.
The accident left six individuals injured, including two victims in critical condition suffering from traumatic cardiac arrest.
First responders arrived on scene under Box 8380, finding multiple vehicles involved in a collision that caused significant damage and blocked portions of the bridge.
Emergency medical teams immediately began triage and treatment, stabilizing patients for transport to area hospitals.
Two individuals required advanced life-saving measures at the scene as they were in traumatic arrest due to their injuries.
Four additional patients sustained varying levels of injury, and all six were transported to nearby trauma centers for further care.
Authorities are investigating the cause of the crash, which caused major traffic disruptions in the area. Motorists were advised to seek alternate routes as emergency crews worked to clear the scene and restore traffic flow.
Further updates will be provided as the investigation progresses and the conditions of the injured individuals are made available.
