MARYSVILLE, Wash. — Gia Soriano, 14, died Sunday night, becoming the second victim of a shooting at a Seattle-area high school after a popular student opened fire on students before taking his own life.
Soriano was one of four critically injured teens taken to a local hospital after high-school freshman Jaylen Fryberg opened fire inside the cafeteria of Marysville-Pilchuck High School Friday, killing one girl and shooting four other students in the head before turning the gun on himself.
Shaylee Chuckulnaskit remains in critical condition, according to Dr. Joanne Roberts of the Providence Regional Medical Center Everett. Of the wounded students, only 14-year-old Nate Hatch showed improvement, though he remained in serious condition in intensive care at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Fifteen-year-old Andrew Fryberg also remained in critical condition in intensive care.
