Death toll rises in Turkey's second school shooting in a week

Authorities in Turkey said the toll from the country’s second school shooting in two days rose to 10 deaths on Thursday when another victim died while being treated.

Authorities reported six of the wounded were in critical condition before the death early Thursday following the shooting the previous day.

Isa Aras Mersinli, 14, opened fire on two classrooms at a middle school in the southern city of Kahramanmaras on Wednesday, killing a teacher and eight students and wounding 13 others.

Wednesday’s attack came just a day after 16 people, mostly students, were wounded when a former student opened fire at a high school in nearby Sanliurfa province.

The assailant later killed himself.
