School, Student, and Assailant Sued by Teen Injured in School Shooting

The Oregonian reports that a teenager shot in the back in a 2006 school incident has filed a lawsuit against his assailant, the school district, and an additional student who still attends the high school where the incident took place. The teenage boy, now 18, is seeking $600,000 in damages. He reportedly suffered nerve damage to his foot as a result of the attack. According to the Oregonian, the assault was partially motivated by a disagreement over female attention. The additional student named as a defendant allegedly helped the assailant procure the weapon used in the shooting, although he never faced criminal charges. The shooter was convicted of attempted murder.
