OREM, Utah (KSL) – Students from a school in Utah are traumatized after a classmate brought a gun on a field trip and shot themselves in front of others.

Police said the ninth grader from Canyon View Junior High shot themselves while on a field trip at South Fork Park.

That student was flown to a local hospital, where they died.

KSL does not normally report on suicides, but because the student brought a gun to school and fired it in front of other students, it brings it to another level.

A group of ninth grade students put up a memorial outside the school in memory of the student who died.

They didn’t want to talk on camera, but said they heard the gunshot, which shocked and scared everyone.
