[NBCDFW] Five students were hospitalized after a shooting inside Wilmer-Hutchins High School in Dallas on Tuesday afternoon, officials say. The school is the same one where a student was injured in a shooting in a classroom last year.
Officials with Dallas Fire-Rescue confirmed Wednesday that four boys were shot and a 14-year-old girl was hospitalized for anxiety. The ages of the shooting victims were 15 to 18, and they had injuries that ranged from serious to non-life-threatening. Of the five people hospitalized on Tuesday, only two remained hospitalized on Wednesday, DFR said.
Officials have confirmed a suspect is in custody. The suspect has been identified as 17-year-old Tracy Denard Haynes Jr.
The affidavit says school surveillance video showed an unidentified student let Haynes in through an unsecured door at 1:03 p.m., and moments later, he began firing indiscriminately at five students. |
