Colorado Teen Dies After School Shooting; 3 Killed in Chicago Shootings 
------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
A Colorado teenager shot by a classmate at Arapahoe High School earlier
this month has died. Claire Davis, who was 17, had been in critical
condition since December 13, when she was shot by Karl Pierson, a fellow
student, who then shot himself. Authorities believe Pierson randomly
targeted Davis while seeking a librarian who had disciplined him.
Meanwhile in Chicago, Illinois at least three people were killed and 15
wounded in a series of shootings this weekend, including one that killed
an 18 year old.
