PINE PLAINS, N.Y. - A town official says a gunman at an upstate New York high school has taken the principal hostage.

Pine Plains Town Supervisor Gregg Pulver tells CNN that students at Stissing Mountain High School are safe. The school is about 90 miles north of New York City.

The school remains on lockdown. Pulver says police are in contact with the gunman. He says the gunman is an adult, not a student.

State police and Dutchess County sheriffs deputies released no other information.

Margaret Hart, who lives across the street from the school, says police cars are in the neighborhood and helicopters are flying overhead. She says the area around the school has a lot of woods and "a lot of places to hide."

LOL I know...was twistedly hoping for it to go on all day. The best part was when one newscaster said it was similar to the worst hostage situation ever. Columbine. COLUMBINE? Granted, it was terrible, but doesn't anyone remember the Beslan incident in 2004?
