Sandy Hook 911 calls are made public

First call about deadly shooting last year came from a school secretary.

Calls from a school secretary and janitor describing gunshots and pleading for help were among the 911 calls that have been been made public from Dec. 14, 2012, when 20 children and six adults were shot to death at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. The Hartford Courant says the first call came from the secretary in the central office.
