Body found in woods was student accused in Denver school shooting, coroner says

Body found after shooting occurred at East high school in Denver, wounding two administrators

A body found in the Colorado woods near an abandoned car was that of a 17-year-old student accused of wounding two administrators in a shooting at his Denver high school on Wednesday, a coroner's office said.

The Park county sheriff, Tom McGraw, said the body was discovered on Wednesday not far from the student's car in a remote mountain area about 50 miles south-west of Denver, near the small town of Bailey. The town had been ordered to shelter in place while officers from agencies including the FBI combed the forest.
