Spurlock did not speak specifically to what injuries the students sustained in [M]the deadly Tuesday afternoon incident.[/M]

HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colorado — A Colorado school shooting that left one student dead and eight others injured Tuesday shares an uncommon connection with the deadly assault on Columbine High School 20 years ago.
Both had two shooters.
“It’s pretty rare,” Dave Cullen, author of “Parkland: Birth of a Movement” and “Columbine,” told CNN’s Anderson Cooper Tuesday night.
“It’s usually a leader and a follower. It’s a whole different, specific psychology going on there.”
Two suspects were apprehended after Tuesday’s shooting at the STEM School Highlands Ranch. The suspects are believed to be students at the school, Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock said.
The attack came less than three weeks after the area marked the 20th anniversary of the Columbine shooting. The STEM School is about seven miles from Columbine, where Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris killed 13 people on April 20, 1999.
Shooters like those involved in Tuesday’s attack, Cullen said, almost always have studied previous attacks — specifically the Columbine killers, Cullen said.

Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock identified the male suspect as 18-year-old Devon Erickson and did not reveal the name of the female suspect.
With the investigation in its early stages, Spurlock said he could release few details about the shooting that left one student dead and 8 others with gunshot wounds.
Five of the injured students have been released from the hospital. The other three remain in critical condition.
A motive for the violence is not yet known.
The first reports about the shooting were received by police at around 2 p.m. local time.

— It was UCF junior [M]Aubrey Dawkins[/M] who flew above everyone to get his fingertips on the ball, tipping it toward the goal just before the game clock expired, because of course it would be the son of the Knights coach who [M]would try to do one more incredible thing to deliver his father the greatest victory of his coaching career[/M].
|
Dawkins leaped and extended his right arm, trying to guide Central Florida teammate B.J. Taylor’s missed bank shot into the basket. Tip it just right, and he would reduce the fabled Duke freshman class to an NCAA tournament second-round flameout. Hit it a little wrong and, well, the natural order would be so heart-wrenching.
Which basketball family would survive? The one he grew up in at Duke, where his father, the great Johnny Dawkins, will always be known as the superstar who spurred a dynasty? Or the one he joined at UCF, where his father is the head coach and, suddenly, a Blue Devil antagonist? In the end, it had to come down to blood.

“An eternity,” Aubrey said of the wait after he touched the ball. “It was up there forever, I felt like, in slow motion.”

COLUMBIA, S.C. — It was UCF junior Aubrey Dawkins who flew above everyone to get his fingertips on the ball, tipping it toward the goal just before the game clock expired, because of course it would be the son of the Knights coach who would try to do one more incredible thing to deliver his father the greatest victory of his coaching career.
There was no disputing it left his hand in time. The only matter in question as it traveled the few short inches toward the goal involved whether it would drop through the rim and into the net or fall to the floor as a missed field goal attempt. One way would present UCF with a victory over the nation’s No. 1 team, Duke, and be stored as an eternal highlight in NCAA Tournament history. The other would allow the Blue Devils to continue playing as if they hadn’t just been shaken to their core.
If measured with a Rolex or a Patek Philippe — or, for that matter, the game clock at Colonial Life Arena — the amount of time Dawkins’ tip attempt hung on the rim might not fill even a half-second. In Human Dreams Standard Time, it felt like it was up there for a day.

“In my head, it was just: 'Not like this, not like this, not like this,'” Duke forward Javin DeLaurier told Sporting News. “That would have been the most painful way for this season, with this group, to end: In the Round of 32, on a buzzer-beater.”

According to the responsible coroner, [M]Webb died[/M] in 2004 [M]by suicide[/M].
|
Gary Stephen Webb (August 31, 1955 – December 10, 2004) was an American investigative journalist.
He began his career working for newspapers in Kentucky and Ohio, winning numerous awards, and building a strong reputation for investigative writing. Hired by the San Jose Mercury News, Webb contributed to the paper's Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage of the Loma Prieta earthquake.
Webb is best known for his "Dark Alliance" series, which appeared in The Mercury News in 1996. The series examined the origins of the crack cocaine trade in Los Angeles and claimed that members of the anti-communist Contra rebels in Nicaragua had played a major role in creating the trade, using cocaine profits to finance their fight against the government in Nicaragua. It also stated that the Contras may have acted with the knowledge and protection of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The series provoked outrage, particularly in the Los Angeles African-American community, and led to four major investigations of its charges.
The Los Angeles Times and other major papers published articles suggesting the "Dark Alliance" claims were overstated and, in November 1996, Jerome Ceppos, the executive editor at Mercury News, wrote about being "in the eye of the storm". In May 1997, after an internal review, Ceppos stated that, although the story was right on many important points, there were shortcomings in the writing, editing and production of the series. He wrote that the series likely "oversimplified" the crack epidemic in America and the supposed "critical role" the dealers written about in the series played in it.

He began his career working for newspapers in Kentucky and Ohio, winning numerous awards, and building a strong reputation for investigative writing. Hired by the San Jose Mercury News, Webb contributed to the paper's Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage of the Loma Prieta earthquake.
Webb is best known for his "Dark Alliance" series, which appeared in The Mercury News in 1996. The series examined the origins of the crack cocaine trade in Los Angeles and claimed that members of the anti-communist Contra rebels in Nicaragua had played a major role in creating the trade, using cocaine profits to finance their fight against the government in Nicaragua. It also stated that the Contras may have acted with the knowledge and protection of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The series provoked outrage, particularly in the Los Angeles African-American community, and led to four major investigations of its charges.
The Los Angeles Times and other major papers published articles suggesting the "Dark Alliance" claims were overstated and, in November 1996, Jerome Ceppos, the executive editor at Mercury News, wrote about being "in the eye of the storm". In May 1997, after an internal review, Ceppos stated that, although the story was right on many important points, there were shortcomings in the writing, editing and production of the series. He wrote that the series likely "oversimplified" the crack epidemic in America and the supposed "critical role" the dealers written about in the series played in it.
