Dayemen Taylor, a 17-year-old student at Imhotep Charter, was shot multiple times and died within minutes, police said.

The scene at Ogontz and Godfrey Streets, where a 17-year-old was shot and killed boarding the bus home from school on Monday.Just minutes after Imhotep Institute Charter High School dismissed its students for the day, kids were sent running for their lives.

Two other Imhotep students were struck by stray bullets, a 15-year-old boy who was shot in the shoulder and a 14-year-old grazed on his back. Two women seated on the bus were also injured — a 50-year-old who was grazed in the arm, and a 71-year-old toting groceries who was shot in the top of her forehead. The elder victim’s injury required surgery, Vanore said, but she is stable, and was awake and speaking with detectives Tuesday morning.“This is an absolute outrage.

Andre Noble, Imhotep’s chief executive officer, said that “the last 24 hours have been our greatest fear.” Classmates took to social media to remember their friend, whom they called “Dame.” One post showed Taylor singing “Baby” by Justin Bieber, dancing and hitting high notes during karaoke with classmates. Another showed him leading chants as a manager of the school’s men’s basketball team.
