17-Year-Old Student Killed and Another Injured in School Shooting Authorities Call 'Accidental'

A student is dead and another is in critical condition following a shooting at an Alabama high school.

On Wednesday, two students were shot at Huffman High School. A 17-year-old girl, who was a senior, was killed and a 17-year-old boy is in a critical but stable condition.

Police are investigating exactly how the shooting occurred.

“At this particular time, we’re considering it accidental until the investigation takes us elsewhere,” Police Chief Orlando Wilson said during an evening news conference. “We are not saying he shot her or did not shoot her. We are saying shots were fired. It’s not a situation where someone from the outside came into the school.”
