Gun violence returned to America’s schools on Friday when a 14-year-old gunman opened fire in a crowded school cafeteria in Washington State, killing one teenager and critically injuring three others.<br />Witnesses said the gunman, named locally as Jaylen Ray Fryberg, 15, stood on a table in the cafeteria of Marysville-Pilchuck High School outside Seattle, and opened fire at close range at around 10.40am local time.<br />Fryberg then turned the gun on himself and died at the scene.<br />Classmates and family members told The Telegraph that Fryberg, a proud Native American from the local Tulalip Tribtes who was pictured on his Facebook page wearing a traditional headdress, had been angered by a dispute over his girlfriend.<br />“He was heartbroken and didn’t know what to do. Jaylen wasn’t a bad kid, he just made a mistake,” his cousin, 16-year-old Heaven Arbuckle said, adding the shooting was over a girl.
