Two kindergarten students were wounded in a shooting at a school in northern California on Wednesday afternoon and a male suspect was found dead with what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound, authorities said.
Two kindergarten students remain in extremely critical condition after they were wounded in a shooting at a small Christian school north of Sacramento, authorities said on Wednesday. The boys, aged 5 and 6, were being treated at local hospitals, Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea said at an evening news conference, hours after a gunman opened fire at the Feather River Adventist School in Oroville. The attack is another example of the scourge of gun violence on American campuses, with at least 78 school shootings recorded so far this year in the United States. This latest school shooting in Northern California highlights how guns are the leading cause of death for children in the US. One student said she spotted the shooter pacing back and forth through a window as she heard gunshots ring out through the school. “I looked back and I saw a shadow with a gun, so I told most people to run even faster,” sixth grader Jocelyn Orlando told CNN affiliate KCRA. A suspect was found dead at the scene with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Honea said. The man has been identified but could not be immediately named due to an ongoing, FBI-assisted investigation, he added.
