Three students — including the shooter — were being treated at the hospital for gunshot wounds. The fourth student took themselves to the hospital with injuries sustained while escaping the high school and fleeing to a nearby elementary school.
The Jefferson County Sheriff’s office said the alleged shooter was a 16-year-old male and suffered a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
Of the three hospitalized students, one has succumbed to their injuries (the shooter who turned the gun on himself), one is still in critical condition and the third has been moved to a rehabilitation ward.
