Two adults have been injured in a shooting at a Denver high school, police say
The shooting at East High School was reported at about 9:50 a.m., and police and medical responders arrived on the scene “very quickly” to find two adult men with gunshot wounds, Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas said. One faculty member is in stable condition, and the other is in critical condition, he said. The student suspected in the shooting, who is under 18, was under a school safety plan in which he was patted down each day, the police chief said.
The incident is the 18th shooting this year at an elementary or secondary school in the US in which at least one person was injured or killed, according to the Gun Violence Archive, a non-profit that attempts to log every incident of gun violence in the US in real time. Just this week, one student was shot at a high school parking lot in Dallas, and in Arlington, Texas, a student was killed and another was injured in a shooting outside a high school.
