KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — A student fatally shot a 15-year-old classmate during a dispute Thursday at a Knoxville high school, police said, as other teenagers watched.
The victim was identified as Ryan McDonald, a sophomore who had alopecia, a condition that left him bald and the target of teasing.
The shooting happened shortly after 8 a.m. at the Central High School cafeteria, police said, and the suspected shooter was taken into custody minutes later on a nearby street. Jamar Siler, 15, was charged with one count of first-degree murder, a police spokesman said.
