Des Moines Police say they have arrested and charged six teenagers with murder in a shooting outside a school that killed a 15-year-old boy and seriously injured two teenage girls.
Police said gunshots fired Monday afternoon outside East High School came from several shooters from multiple vehicles. Those arrested range in age from 14 to 17.
Sgt. Paul Parizek told KCCI-TV that calls started pouring in around 2:50 pm, shortly before classes were scheduled to dismiss for the day.
Police didn't identify those shot but said a 15-year-old male had died. He was not a student at East.
The other two shot were females aged 16 and 18, who both attend East. They were hospitalised in critical condition.
The district said in a news release that the school was immediately put into lockdown and students were kept inside while police investigated. They were dismissed around 3:30 pm after law enforcement gave an all clear.
Principal Jill Versteeg described what happened as “everyone's worst nightmare" and urged parents to “hug your students and love them.”

Oil and gas refineries and hubs are up in flames not just in the Middle East, but also in Russia and the US. Crude oil prices have surged over $100 a barrel. With the energy infrastructure in the Middle East likely to take years to be rebuilt, the world could be set for the biggest oil disruption in history.

Speaking at the White House, Trump said the United States was in contact with "the right people" in Iran and suggested that Tehran was eager to reach an agreement to halt hostilities. "We're in negotiations right now," he told reporters, without offering further details on the scope or format of the talks.
