RED LAKE, Minn. – A student went on a shooting spree Monday, killing his grandparents and five people at his high school on an Indian reservation. The gunman himself was later found shot to death, authorities said.

It was the nation's worst school shooting since the Columbine massacre in 1999.

Before the shootings at the school, the suspect's grandparents were shot in their home and died later.

Six people died in the mid-afternoon shooting at Red Lake High School in far northern Minnesota, including four students. Also killed were a teacher and a security guard, FBI spokesman Paul McCabe said at a news conference in Minneapolis.

He declined to talk about a possible connection between the suspect and the couple killed at the home, but Red Lake Fire Director Roman Stately said they were the grandparents of the shooter. Stately told several media outlets that the grandfather was a police officer whose guns may have been used in the shootings.

All of the dead students were found in one room. One of them was a boy believed to be the shooter, McCabe said. He would not comment on reports that the boy shot himself and said it was too early to speculate on a motive.

Fourteen to 15 other students were injured, including two critically, McCabe said.

The school was evacuated after the shootings and locked down for investigation, McCabe said.

"It will probably take us throughout the night to really put the whole picture together," he said.

It was the nation's worst school shooting since two students at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., killed 12 students and a teacher and wounded 23 before killing themselves on April 20, 1999.

It was also the first fatal school shooting in more than four years. The last shooting, on March 5, 2001, happened in San Diego County, where a 15-year-old student killed two classmates and wounded 13 others at Santana High School. The gunman, Charles "Andy" Williams, was sentenced to 50-years-to-life in prison.

Red Lake High School, on the Red Lake Indian Reservation, has about 300 students, according to its Web site.

The reservation is about 240 miles north of the Twin Cities. It is home to the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians

::insert joke about his new indian name here::

Props to the kid, he had a better kill percentage than the Columbine killers.

5 dead out of 300 students = 1.67%

Columbine:

12 dead out of 3000 = a meager .4%

This kid was 4 times more effective.

Beebs · 03-22-2005, 01:12 AM

8 times considering there were 2 shooters at columbine.

03-22-2005, 01:13 AM

A damn fine observation.

fancymeghan · 03-22-2005, 01:16 AM

that's fucking ridiculous.

kids need to stop liking guns and being so creepy. then their classmates wouldn't make fun of their freakiness.

therefore, they'll stop shooting the fuckers that make fun of them.

I think it would have been about 75x cooler if he could have used a tomahawk and a bow and arrow.

fancymeghan · 03-22-2005, 01:37 AM

you know that was totally an option being on an injun reservation and all.

Orgazmo · 03-22-2005, 01:46 AM

Yeah...I think he kind of slapped his heritage in the face by using a firearm.

It would be curious to see the "rounds fired per deaths" statistic. That would be the real teller.

I emailed their principal and said "good going, douchebag".

I don't need to. The newspaper misreported the news. On CNN they said he had a tomahawk, a bow and arrow, and war paint and feathers.

Orgazmo · 03-22-2005, 02:11 AM

Was he riding a horse? Please tell me he was riding a horse.

03-22-2005, 02:15 AM

A fucking war horse.

All painted up.

the Butcher · 03-22-2005, 02:19 AM

jesus fucking christ people. only 5 fucking kids were killed? no wonder these kids are made fun of...they can't even fucking do a shooting right. i mean, come on. if i had a gun, i guarantee i could take out at least the same number of people that there are bullets. aim for the fucking head! it's not that hard! ahhh.

it just makes me mad that people can't even murder each other efficiently. no wonder our generation is looked down upon. we fucking suck at simple tasks.

Well how many arrows did he use, then?

Orgazmo · 03-22-2005, 02:27 AM

If he was a real badass, he would have only used one. After each lethal strike, he'd retrieve his projectile from the victim's lifeless corpse and quickly reload his weapon of death, only to hunt down another helpless peer.

IF he was a badass. but alas, i don't believe he was. i mean, he is a "new generation" indian and all. his ancestors would be ashamed that he was such a pussy who couldn't get a job done right.

03-22-2005, 02:38 AM

No shit, I bet they are going to set up some memorial casino now in memory of this tragedy... fucking pussies.

Orgazmo · 03-22-2005, 02:44 AM

I'd visit...to show my respects, of course.

Ugly Bastard · 03-22-2005, 02:49 AM

Of course. And to double up.

I was surfing CNN's site and stumbled across this image. Evidently there was a photographer visiting the school on this day and happened to be in the right place at the right time. He captured a picture of the killer just before he took one of his classmates' lives.

the Butcher · 03-22-2005, 03:17 AM

i take back what i said about him not being a badass. i totally wouldn't fuck with that guy. the killer is the boy in the sweater, right?
