Abstract

The article reports that a shooting in a Minnesota high school last week left one student dead from gunshot wounds and another hospitalized in critical condition. Police said that a student armed with a handgun opened fire just before noon on September 24 at Rocori High School in the 2,600-student Rocori district in Cold Spring, 60 miles northwest of the Twin Cities. Investigators with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension said that charges would likely be filed on September 26 against a 15-year-old freshman student. The victims, according to the Associated Press, were Aaron Rollins, a senior, who died at a local hospital after being hit in the neck by gunfire, and freshman Seth Bartell, who was reported to be in critical condition the day after the shooting, with gunshot wounds to the chest and head.
