PALERMO – Authorities say a suspect is dead and two students are hurt after a shooting at a school in the Northern California community of Palermo on Wednesday.

The Butte County Sheriff’s Office says the incident happened around 1 p.m. at the Feather River School of Seventh-Day Adventists.

One person was found by deputies with a self-inflicted gunshot wound, with the sheriff’s office confirming that the suspected shooter had died. Two students were also found shot; their conditions were not known at this time, the sheriff’s office says, but both have been taken to local hospitals. 

The suspect has not been identified at this time. It’s also unclear if the shooting was random, the sheriff’s office says, but it doesn’t appear that the suspect had a connection to the campus.

Due to the investigation, California Highway Patrol is diverting northbound traffic on Highway 70 at E. Gridley Road west to Highway 99. Southbound Highway 70 is also closed at Power House Hill Road, with traffic being diverted to Lone Tree Road. 

The school serves about 35 students from kindergarten to eighth grade. 

Palermo is a town about 25 miles north of Marysville and 65 miles north of Sacramento.

Federal judge temporarily blocks Kroger-Albertsons merger – CBS News


Watch CBS News



A federal judge has temporarily blocked the merger of grocery giants Kroger and Albertsons after a three-week hearing. The Federal Trade Commission sued over the $25 billion deal in February, asking that it be put on hold to allow more time for an FTC administrative judge to examine its potential impacts. The FTC claims that allowing Kroger and Albertsons to merge would lead to less competition in the grocery industry and higher prices.

Trump considering Kimberly Guilfoyle for ambassador to Greece, three sources say

President-elect Donald Trump is considering nominating Kimberly Guilfoyle to be U.S. ambassador to Greece, three sources familiar with the selection confirmed to CBS News. Guilfoyle, a former Fox News host-turned-political fundraiser, was dating Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr.

The transition team declined comment. Guilfoyle’s nomination would require Senate confirmation. 

Guilfoyle, 55, appeared on stage with the Trump family on election night. She traveled the country to raise money for Trump’s presidential campaign and spoke at the Republican convention in July.

“In our vision, America will combat foreign aggressors and ensure our service members are protected, not abandoned, as they carry out their dangerous missions abroad, because we know we can only have peace through strength,” she said in the speech.

Guilfoyle, a lawyer by training, served as a prosecutor in California early in her career before turning to television. She is divorced from California Gov. Gavin Newsom. 

Trump has a history of naming family members and people with close personal ties to key positions. He has chosen Charles Kushner, his son-in-law’s father, to serve as ambassador to France, and has tapped the father-in-law of daughter Tiffany Trump to be a Middle East adviser. 

Trump’s eldest daughter, Ivanka, and her husband Jared Kusher, were senior White House officials during Trump’s first term.
