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 his classmates 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 injuring four others before dying of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.


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.







Both are cousins of Jaylen Fryberg, whom other students described as a popular football player who had just been named homecoming prince. He was a member of a prominent Native American family from the Tulalip Tribes.


Jaylen Fryberg died in the attack after a first-year teacher intervened. It's unclear if he intentionally killed himself or if the gun went off in a struggle with a teacher.


According to family members, 14-year-old Zoe Galasso was also killed in the shooting. She has not been identified by the medical examiner.


The shootings sent shockwaves through the community.


Earlier Sunday, tribal members played drums and sang songs in a gymnasium as students and parents gathered to support each other.

Young people hugged each other and cried and speakers urged people to come together during a community meeting Sunday afternoon.


"Grieve today, take the time to cry. Tomorrow we have work to do," said Marysville Police Chief Rick Smith.







"We are devastated by this senseless tragedy. Gia is our beautiful daughter and words cannot express how much we will miss her," said a statement from the Soriano family, who requested privacy.


The close-knit community on the nearby Tulalip Indian reservation, meanwhile, struggled with the realization that a young man who had shown such promise could have ended his life and those of others so violently.


A tribal guidance counselor said no one knows what motivated Fryberg.







"We can't answer that question," said Matt Remle, who has an office at Marysville-Pilchuck High School, which is 30 miles north of Seattle. "But we try to make sense of the senselessness."


In the nearby community of Oso, where a landslide this spring killed dozens, people planned to gather to write condolence letters and cards.


Remele said he knew Fryberg and the other students well.


"My office has been a comfort space for Native students," he said. "Many will come by and have lunch there, including the kids involved in the shooting."


They all were "really happy, smiling kids," Remle said. "They were a polite group. A lot of the kids from the freshman class were close-knit. Loving.


"These were not kids who were isolated," he said. "They had some amazing families, and have amazing families."


These factors make the shooting that much more difficult to deal with. "Maybe it would be easier if we knew the answer," Remle said. "But we may never know."
