The scene is active with multiple patrol units and EMS units, along with SWAT and an aviation unit.

A mass of law enforcement from across the region descended on the Oakland County school, covering roads with armed sheriff deputies, police vehicles, ambulances and other emergency personnel.
Helicopters hovered above Lapeer and Ray roads near the high school.
