Report: Girl survived shooting ‘by playing dead’
A six-year-old girl survived the Newtown massacre by pretending she was dead, according to reports.
The girl, who has not been identified, is said to be the only survivor of her class.
The family’s pastor Reverend Jim Solomon told ABC News: “[She] ran out of the school building covered in blood from head to toe, and the first words she said to her mum when she got outside was: 'Mummy, I'm OK, but all of my friends are dead.”
The victims of the Sandy Hook massacre
A list of the victims from the US school shooting has been published. Twenty students and six teachers were killed in the massacre.
Harrowing details of tragic US massacre emerge
The most disturbing feature of the rampage is what we do not know. We still have no idea why Adam Lanza acted with this cowardly savagery.
The loss of the children is incomprehensible
There are reports claiming that Adam Lanza went to the school a day before the massacre. They say he had a major confrontation with staff.
