Injured Toll in Russian School Shooting Rises to 23

Twenty-three people remain hospitalized Wednesday in the Russian city of Kazan following a school shooting that killed nine people, seven of whom were children.  

The attack occurred Tuesday morning when a gunman opened fire on a school there. "We have lost seven children ... four boys and three girls," Rustam Minnikhanov, the president of the Republic of Tatarstan, told state TV, according to Reuters. Authorities have said all 23 wounded remain in stable condition and at least eight — three adults and five children — will be transferred to Moscow for further treatment.
