A teacher who was injured during a shooting at a school in La Loche, Sask., on Jan. 22, 2016, has died.
Charlene Klyne died last Wednesday. Family said it was due to complications from her injuries incurred in the shooting.
Her son Jeffery Klyne said his mother lost all vision in her left eye after the attack. She could only see dark shadows in her right eye. After the shooting she had shotgun pellets lodged in multiple spots from her jaw to her chest.
Klyne was a teacher at La Loche Dene High School when the fatal shooting occurred. On that January day, both she and her husband were in the building. He was the vice-principal and she was working as a substitute teacher.
Klyne was in a classroom with one student and a tutor when the shooter turned his weapon on her.
