TORREON: An 11-year-old boy shot and killed his teacher on Friday at a school in northern Mexico and wounded six other people, then killed himself, authorities said.
Riquelme said the student had asked for permission to go to the bathroom shortly after the school day began. When he did not return after about 15 minutes, his teacher, a 50-year-old woman, went to see if anything was wrong. "We deeply regret this incident ... which is shocking for us all," the governor told a news conference."I want to reiterate that this sort of thing is not the norm in our schools."However, the incident was not without precedent. In 2014, a 15-year-old shot and killed a schoolmate in central Mexico State, and in 2017 a 15-year-old shot and wounded four classmates at a high school in the northern city of Monterrey.
"Natural Selection" was also written on a T-shirt worn by one of the shooters at Columbine High School in 1999, when two students killed 13 schoolmates and then themselves.
