The victim, a Prince George's County Public Schools student, suffered minor injuries and is expected to recover, while the shooting briefly put the campus and nearby Largo High School on lockdown. 
• Rulings leave questions lingering in Nolan Wells case (chicagocrusader.com) — In Upper Marlboro, authorities quickly ruled a Black man's death by hanging on D'Arcy Road a suicide, saying his family agrees and asking the public to avoid sharing images or speculation. His case is examined alongside controversial deaths in Mississippi as part of a broader investigation into how officials classify possible lynchings and what evidence is released to grieving families and communities.
