Teenage Shooter Kills Three Children and Teacher in Bend, Oregon
The community of Bend, Oregon, is in mourning following a school shooting at the Silver Rail Elementary School. Police say three children, ages 5, 8 and 11, and a teacher were fatally shot by a 16-year-old resident of the town who used a long gun to blast his way through the school’s locked doors. A 7-year-old student was also critically injured along with a teacher. The suspected shooter was reportedly fatally shot by an armed member of the community who pursued them into the school. The mayor of Bend Oregon spoke to the media after the shooting. Mayor Melanie Kebler: “A school should be a safe place where children can learn and feel secure.
