Terrified students leaving their school with hands raised escaping the senseless horror bullet and??? bloodshed in their hallways in classrooms. A teenage girl was pronounced dead inside the school. Another victim, a teacher, died at the hospital. The gun believed to be in his twenties was killed in battle with police. This was the fortieth school shooting in the US this year.
