RIGBY 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 non-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.
BILLINGS - Numerous community entities were mobilized over the weekend, after a pile up of about 30 cars left dozens of people stranded on the Yellowstone River Bridge Saturday.
Montana Highway Patrol (MHP) Captain Keith Edgell says a perfect storm of dangerous driving conditions, including ice and limited visibility due to snow, contributed to the multiple vehicle crash on I-90 leaving two hospitalized.
Around seven troopers were working the scene Saturday, with two primary troopers leading the crash investigation, while a Sergeant and Captain Edgell assist with gathering information.
The two major hospitals in Billings, Billings Clinic and St. Vincent Healthcare, train for multi-casualty emergencies, so they are at the top of their game when disasters like this strike.
