Sad News at Aki Kurose Middle School

 Via The Seattle Times:


A 17-year-old boy suffered life-threatening injuries and a 14-year-old was in police custody after the two exchanged gunfire Thursday evening outside Aki Kurose Middle School in South Seattle, according to police. 

Seattle police spokeswoman Valerie Carson said the younger boy was sitting on the steps in front of the school about 6:30 p.m. when he was approached by the older boy. It appears they both had firearms, she said. 

The 17-year-old was struck multiple times and was lying in the street when officers arrived, she said.

So questions:

- How were there TWO underaged kids with guns? 

- School isn't even open so I wonder why they ended up at the school?

No comment from the district yet (at least on Twitter).
