family pastor said late Sunday, with the kind of quick thinking that ended up saving her life but now leaves her with the unshakeable memories of watching all her classmates being shot and

killed. The name of the girl is not being revealed — we may have seen and heard too much from these poor kids on TV already — but ABC News's Lara Spencer reports the pastor's

a news conference Monday morning that two unnamed adults who had gunshot wounds are now recovering in the hospital. This article is from the archive of our partner _The Wire_. ABOUT THE
