Girl, 14, stabbed at suburban Denver school; boy detained
Police say a 14-year-old girl has been stabbed at a school in suburban Denver and a 14-year-old classmate has been detained.
Authorities say the girl was stabbed Thursday at Aspen Creek K-8 school in Broomfield and then airlifted to a hospital.
North Metro Fire Rescue spokeswoman Sara Farris wouldn’t comment on the extent of the girl’s injuries. She says the girl was airlifted because it was the quickest way to get her to a trauma unit, given traffic and other considerations.
Police say the attack appears to be an isolated incident and there’s no reason to believe there’s any additional threat to the school, where both teens are students.
