National Guard fighter jet strafes N.J. school

Featured Replies

LITTLE EGG HARBOR, N.J. (AP) ? A National Guard F-16 fighter jet on a nighttime training mission strafed an elementary school with 25 rounds of ammunition, authorities said Thursday. No one was injured.

The military is investigating the incident, which took place at the Little Egg Harbor Intermediate School shortly after 11 p.m. Wednesday.

 

Police were called when a custodian who was the only person in the school at the time heard what sounded like someone running across the roof.

 

Police Chief Mark Siino said officers noticed punctures in the roof. Ceiling tiles had fallen into classrooms, and there were scratch marks in the asphalt outside.

 

The 2-inch-long bullets are made of lead and do not explode, said Col. Brian Webster, commander of the 177th Fighter Wing of the New Jersey Air National Guard.

 

He said it was unclear why the shots were fired.

 

Schools in New Jersey were closed Thursday because of a teachers convention.

If you read the article it said "Police were called when a custodian who was the only person in the school at the time heard what sounded like someone running across the roof."
