It’s the sort of thing you’d never imagine reading on local headlines.

This afternoon, when news broke that a River Valley High student had been killed by another student on campus, I was utterly shocked and saddened.

The police said that when they arrived on scene, they found a 13-year-old lying motionless, with multiple wounds, in a toilet.

A 16-year-old has been arrested in connection to the death, and an axe was seized as evidence.

It seems that the Secondary 1 and Secondary 4 students did not know each other.

As I read how parents received texts and calls from their children informing them about what happened in school, my thoughts wandered to my own kids.

It’s the worse kind of nightmare a parent could have.

You send your children to school, but never expect that it might be the last time you see them, or that they would have to witness such a tragedy.

One can’t help but wonder: What happened?
