Parkland student dies in ‘apparent suicide,’ police say. It’s the second death to rock the school in a week.

A student from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School died in an “apparent suicide” on Saturday night, Coral Springs, Fla., police said, just a week after a 19-year-old survivor of the 2018 mass shooting at the school took her own life.

The student's name and age were not released, and Officer Tyler Reik told The Washington Post that the death is under investigation. Reik could not confirm the student's gender or age and did not provide the cause of death.

A week ago, the Parkland, Fla., school was shaken by the death of Sydney Aiello, who took her own life.
