Student dead, others injured after drive-by shooting at Kentucky school bus stop

Two teenagers were shot, including one fatally, as they waited for their school bus in Kentucky on Wednesday morning, police said.

The students were waiting at the corner of the Russell neighborhood of Louisville for their bus around 6:30 a.m. when someone in a vehicle passed by and opened fire, according to the Louisville Metro Police Department.

One boy was pronounced dead in hospital, while another sustained non-life threatening injuries, police said. A girl treated at the scene for injuries was not shot, authorities said. Their names were not disclosed.

Others at the bus stop were not injured, police said. Investigators are requesting footage from cameras in the area as they search for a suspect.

Jefferson County Public Schools said the loss of a student was “devastating.”

“All of our hearts are breaking right now,” a spokesperson said.
