First Georgia school shooting victim ID’d as special education math teacher
The first victim in Wednesday’s tragic shooting at Apalachee High School in Georgia has been identified as special education math teacher David Phenix.
“We are so thankful for all the texts, calls, and messages about my dad, David Phenix. There was a shooting this morning at Apalachee High School and my dad was shot in the foot and in the hip, shattering his hip bone,” his daughter Katie wrote in a Facebook update about her dad’s condition.
“He arrived to the hospital alert and awake. He just got out of surgery and is stable. We will update as we hear new information. We are so, so lucky, but please keep our family as well as the AHS family in your prayers.”
Although Phenix survived the shooting, at least four others died at the hands of the gunman — believed to be as young as 14 — who also wounded 30 others.
