Still breaking. No linkable story yet. Just a bubble on the home page, and a quick story on the NWCN TV channel.

A sling-shot? Or maybe they were trying out the stash they got from Santa and were shooting up in the parking lot?

hehehe... [chuckle]

Maybe not much more to this. I'm guessing a gangsta. Lots of gang activity in Tacoma.

FoxNews:

1 student (male) shot, died on way to hospital.

2 people were 'involved'. One brought the gun to school and shot the other (male).

Perp has apparently escaped from the campus and is on the loose.
