Philippines school shooting: three students dead, including gunman
–
Neutral summary
A shooting at Banga National High School in the southern Philippines on Friday, September 18, left three students dead, including the 16-year-old suspected gunman who turned the gun on himself; the number of injured ranges from eight to 17, according to various reports. All victims were students aged 14 to 17, said Banga town mayor Albert Palencia. The gunman had warned friends after lunch that he was “going to do something” and told them to go home, but they thought he was joking. It is the third school shooting in the country since June. Education Secretary Sonny Angara visited the school on Saturday, September 19, where the Philippine flag flew at half-mast.
