SEATTLE — One of the teenagers wounded in a Washington state high school shooting died Friday, raising to four the number of fatalities from when a student opened fire in a cafeteria a week ago.
Shaylee Chuckulnaskit, 14, died late Friday afternoon, said officials at Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett, Wash.
Zoe Galasso, 14, was killed during the shooting Oct. 24 by a freshman at Marysville-Pilchuck High School. Gia Soriano, 14, died Sunday at the Everett hospital.
Two other students remain hospitalized at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Andrew Fryberg, 15, was in critical condition Friday, and Nate Hatch, 14, was in satisfactory condition.
The shooter, Jaylen Fryberg, 15, died of a self-inflicted wound.
The school, 30 miles north of Seattle, was closed this week and will reopen Monday.
“Our hearts are broken at the passing of our beautiful daughter,” Shaylee Chuckulnaskit’s family said in a statement. “Shay means everything to us. In Shay’s short life she has been a radiant light bringing us incredible joy and happiness. She has been a loving daughter, a caring sister, a devoted friend and a wonderful part of our community.
