Denver Community Mourns Tragic Shooting at East High School, Suspect Believed to be Found Dead

A tragic incident of gun violence occurred at East High School in Denver on Wednesday morning, when two staff members were shot and wounded by a student. The suspect was identified as Austin Lyle, a 17-year-old student who was already under a safety protocol.

Later that day, authorities found an abandoned car that belonged to the suspect in a remote mountain area in Bailey, Colorado, about 50 miles southwest of Denver. On Wednesday night, a body was discovered in the same area, near the car.

Park County Sheriff Tom McGraw said the body was found around 8:15 p.m. and is believed to be that of the suspect. The identity of the body is still being confirmed.

The shooting at East High School has left the community reeling, as it comes just a month after another fatal incident of gun violence in the area. The investigation into the incident is ongoing and authorities have not released any further information at this time.

The Denver community is mourning the tragic events of Wednesday and is hoping for a swift resolution to the investigation. Our thoughts are with the victims and their families during this difficult time.
