School Shooting

Arguments are taking place Tuesday over whether the parents of a former Oxford High School student who killed four classmates in a 2021 shooting should stand trial.

A gunman shot and killed three people and injured five others on the campus of Michigan State University Monday night before fatally shooting himself, police said.

Police say the suspect, a 43-year-old man, was found off the MSU campus and died from what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Five others, all students, are in critical condition.

A bill that would fund specialized, optional firearm safety training for school employees passed out of the House Education Committee Wednesday.

The Michigan Supreme Court on Tuesday postponed the January trial for the parents of the teenager who's pleaded guilty to killing four students at his high school.

Authorities say the teenager accused of killing four fellow students and injuring more at a Michigan high school is expected to plead guilty to murder next week.

In a statement, police spokeswoman Ashley O’Chap said officers responded to a report of an active shooter at the school around 12:30 p.m., but that no threat actually existed.

Intermediate school districts would hire dedicated mental health and safety staff under a bipartisan package introduced this week in the Michigan House of Representatives.

A law firm says about 20 students at a Michigan high school where four students were killed in a mass shooting say their constitutional rights to safety and education have been violated.

Oxford Community Schools already faces multiple lawsuits for allegedly mishandling the situation that led up to accused shooter Ethan Crumbley’s rampage. The latest comes from the mother of one victim, senior Madisyn Baldwin.
