A 12-year-old girl is fighting for life in hospital after she was shot in the head and neck by a school shooter in Canada. Maya Gebala was one of at least two-dozen children and teachers wounded when a 'female in a dress' opened fire at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School. Maya was a skilled defender on the local Tumbler Ridge Raptors under-13 ice hockey team in the North East Recreational Hockey League. The secondary school, which enrolls 175 students, and its elementary school, will be closed for the rest of the week. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said in a social media post that he was devastated by the shooting.
