It Can Happen Anywhere - Part II

CBS affiliate, WRGB reports on the Pine Plains Middle School, attempting to return to normal after the hostage incident which took place the other day.

On Thursday the bucolic main street in Pine Plains,60 miles south of Albany,was a far cry from the frenzy that took over this northern Dutchess County town on Tuesday when anguished parents filled the streets wondering if their children were safe from a man who used a shotgun to take the middle school principal hostage.

It was a story that garnered national news coverage and focused an ugly spotlight on Pine Plains.

I don't know if it's such an "ugly spotlight." What do you think? Isn't this the kind of thing that can happen anywhere? Or can it?
