The Iowa high school principal who was shot and wounded while trying to protect his students during a school shooting earlier this month has died from his injuries, according to the school district.

Perry High School Principal Dan Marburger was among seven people injured in the Jan. 4 shooting. One student, 11-year-old sixth grader Ahmir Jolliff, was killed, authorities said.

The suspected shooter – a student at the high school – died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, authorities said.

    "his family wrote on GoFundMe. "

    Is there any more to this story or is that just their choice of communication?.

      My guess would be that GoFundMe is being used to fund his healthcare expenses since we apparently can’t just have that free at the point of service like the rest of the civilized world.
