It was two weeks ago today that a pair of Chileans were shot dead in Florida in a possible hate-motivated murder. Sixty-year-old Dannie Baker remains under arrest after indiscriminately shooting at a nearby house party held by over a dozen exchange students. The crime “caused commotion in Chile” according to the Chilean consul.
Three other young adults wounded from the shooting have fortunately been recuperating. Two of them were released from the hospital earlier this month after being treated for their gunshot wounds. Despite being struck in the head and the neck, 25-year-old Francisco Cofre has been listed in fair condition according to hospital authorities.
The physical wounds may be healing for those injured by Baker’s attack yet the psychological wounds still remain fresh:
A fund has been established to help the students affected by the shooting. Prospective donors may call 1-850-244-9900 for more information.
