17 Dead in Florida High School Shooting
.
Summary:
At least 17 people were killed and many more injured in a mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School when the suspect shooter, a 19-year-old ex-student expelled for disciplinary problems, set off the fire alarm and began the carnage in the hallway as students and teachers were leaving their classrooms.

Language Enhancement:
Carnage (n.)(大屠殺)
此字是不可數名詞,與 massacre (n.) 、slaughter (n.) 和 mass murder (ph.) 意思相近,是指對受害人進行無差別和殘暴的大規模殺戮(尤其是戰爭或恐怖襲擊之中)。
e.g. The “Saw” movie had several scenes of carnage where the villain slayed hordes of people.
e.g. After three days of violent shooting and unspeakable carnage, our forces were able to break through the enemy’s defence line.
