Texas High School Is On Lockdown After Student Commits Suicide
May 4th, 2007Tragic news breaks today in Elmaton, Texas as a Matagorda County high school student committed suicide during classes. The high school is on lockdown as investigators enter the scene.
The student whose name has not yet been released, apparently was suffering from depression recently. She had asked to be excused from class to use the restroom and when she did not return, the class’s teacher asked another student to look for her. The girl was found dead in the bathroom from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
It’s unknown where the gun was sourced and how the girl was able to smuggle it into the school. Counselors have been deployed to the school to help the students who are dealing with their fellow classmate’s suicide. Classes are canceled and the campus is indeed locked down but parents can pick up their children.
