Police in Georgia have a suspect in custody after reports of gunfire at an Atlanta-area elementary school.
Superintendent of DeKalb County schools Michael Thurmond says school officials are doing a head count to ensure all students at Ronald E McNair Discovery Learning Academy are safe.
He says he is not aware of any injuries.
Television footage shows students had been evacuated from the school and were sitting outside in a field.
Buses are being brought in to take children away from the school.
DeKalb County School Board Chairman Melvin Johnson told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution newspaper there were reports of shots being fired inside the building that houses students from pre-school to fifth grade.
