***UPDATE 9: Here is the latest just after 9PM on what we know. Apparently the earlier reports that the father was killed is incorrect. Also the mom was at home when she was killed and Adam Lanza stole her guns to commit mass murder:

***UPDATE 8: Shooter Adam Lanza apparently suffered from mental illness:

Ryan Lanza, 24, brother of gunman Adam Lanza, 20, tells authorities that his younger brother is autistic, or has Asperger syndrome and a “personality disorder.” Neighbors described the younger man to ABC as “odd” and displaying characteristics associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

***UPDATE 7: Here is the latest from Fox News as of just after 4PM EST. They also report that they are now being told the shooter is the brother Adam Lanza:

***UPDATE 6: FOX NEWS CHANNEL just reported that it’s possible that Ryan Lanza was not the shooter, but that it was his brother Adam Lanza. This has not been confirmed. And the count is now up to 20 children dead among the 26.







***UPDATE 5: The shooter’s name is Ryan Lanza. Both his father and his mother have been found dead now. His father was found dead in Hoboken, NJ. The believe Lanza killed his father first, then drove to Connecticut and killed his mother before finally killing between 18-20 children at this elementary school.

***UPDATE: 3 & 4: The Livestream is over and few details were released, including official numbers on how many killed. Megyn Kelly did report that most of the children dead were in a Kindergarten class. The Principal and school psychologist are also among the dead.

Also, there may not be a 2nd shooter as the Sheriff did confirm that the public is not in danger.

***UPDATE 2: According to Fox News Channel the death toll right now is 26 dead, including 18 children and the dead gunman who was possibly a parent. They are also reporting that a 2nd gunman is now in custody.

Stay tuned.
