17 killed in mass shooting at Florida high school

At least 17 people were killed and 15 injured when a former student opened fire at a high school in Parkland, near Miami, in Florida.

The first victim of the attack was publicly identified on Thursday as Aaron Feis, an assistant coach on the school’s football team and a school security guard who was shot while shielding students.

The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, where the shooting took place, has a significant number of Indian students. Identities of the victims emerged only slowly, through accounts of affected families, as the authorities had not disclosed their details as of Thursday morning.
