WISCONSIN (CNN/AP) - Authorities say a 15-year-old boy who held 23 students and a teacher hostage in a Wisconsin classroom has died at a Green Bay hospital from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Marinette Police Chief Jeff Skorik says sophomore Samuel Hengel died at 10:44 a.m. Tuesday. Skorik says Hengel, of Porterfield, shot himself as police stormed a classroom at Marinette High School Monday night.
The 24 hostages who were held for several hours Monday afternoon were not injured.
A Marinette High School administrator called authorities after 3 p.m. Monday to say a student had taken over a classroom. Students and the teacher tried to keep Hengel calm during the ordeal.
Marinette is about 50 miles north of Green Bay and sits on the border with Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The high school has an annual enrollment of approximately 800 students.
Late Monday night , police stormed the classroom after hearing three gunshots. That's when police say the teenager fired at himself.
The hostages and teacher did not have any injuries.
