He was being readied for surgery.
Two other victims were in a “moderate” condition.

One report said the girl asked with the gun had been bullied by fellow students.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Bryansk region issued a statement saying:
“Today the police received a report of a shooting at gymnasium No. 5 in the city of Bryansk.
“Police officers immediately went to the scene.
“According to preliminary information, one of the students brought a firearm into the gymnasium building and fired several times, as a result of which three people were injured.
“After this, the girl committed suicide.
“The motives and circumstances of the incident are being established.”
State media RT reported that she first shot her classmate and then sought out victims around the school, breaking into a second classroom to continue her rampage.
On the fourth floor, she committed suicide, according to RT.
SHOT media said the girl had brought her father’s 16-caliber Bekas-3 hunting rifle to school inside a tube, unnoticed by security.
The head of the school was named as Galina Sautkina.
A student said: “We were just sitting in English and heard gunshots.
“We panicked, started closing windows, putting desks on top of each other.
“None of the teachers answered anything.
“ It turned out that a girl from the 8th grade came with a gun and started shooting.”
A second pupil explained: “Everything was normal until the second lesson.
“The police came, the ambulance… That’s it.
