6PM: School shooter could face attempted murder charges; doctor says condition of victims is an 'absolute blessing'
KSL TV
RIGBY, Idaho — It is an "absolute blessing" that two students and a custodian were not more seriously injured or killed after being shot Thursday morning at Rigby Middle School.
Dr. Michael Lemon, the trauma medical director at Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center, said during a news conference at the Jefferson School District Office that three victims sustained injuries that were not life-threatening injuries and should recover.
The school employee was shot one time in what Lemon described as a "through-and-through" extremity injury. He was treated and released by Thursday afternoon. One student was shot once in an extremity and may require surgery, according to Lemon. The other student was potentially shot twice, and two limbs were hit.
