Boy, 6, dies days after South Carolina school shooting
COLUMBIA, S.C. >> A coroner says a 6-year-old boy has died days after he was critically wounded in a school shooting in South Carolina.
Anderson County Coroner Greg Shore said Jacob Hall died about 1 p.m. Saturday. Jacob had been fighting for his life at a hospital since the shooting Wednesday at Townville Elementary School. A bullet struck Hall in a main artery in his leg, causing him to lose a lot of blood.
Authorities say another student and a first-grade teacher were also shot when a 14-year-old boy opened fire on a playground. They were treated and released.
Authorities say the teen killed his father before he drove to the school. He was charged as a juvenile Friday with murder and three counts of attempted murder.
Authorities have not released a motive.

Those poor parents. Better he should die than be on life support forever. May he RIP and the lunatic that killed him go to jail forever.
My deepest ALOHA to his ohana. Senseless…
