No ceremonies in Newtown for shooting anniversary

NEWTOWN, CONN - The community of Newtown quietly marked the second anniversary of the shooting rampage that left 20 children and six educators dead at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

No public memorial events were held on a day town officials said instead would be for private reflection and remembrance.

Churches remembered the victims in Sunday services. At St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church, special bells were rung and the victims' names were read.
