PARKLAND, Florida—A former student at a Florida high school opened fire in the school on Wednesday, causing “numerous fatalities” and sending hundreds of panicked young people fleeing their classrooms before he was arrested by police, authorities said.
The Broward County Sheriff’s Department said “at least 14 victims” from the shooting had been taken to area hospitals, but it is not immediately clear how many of those will survive. Two of those in hospital have been reported to have died from their injuries.
