Hazard Police Chief Minor Allen confirms that a third victim has died after a shooting at Hazard Community and Technical College.

Allen says the 12-year-old victim died just before 4:00 Wednesday afternoon at University of Kentucky Hospital.

State officials confirm one man and one woman were also killed in the shooting.

Twenty-one-year-old Dalton Stidham is charged with two counts of murder. Another count of attempted murder will likely be upgraded to a murder charge.

Police say Dalton shot and killed 20-year-old Caitlin Cornett and her uncle, 53-year-old Jackie Cornett, and injured the young girl, who died Wednesday.

Police say the shooter and the woman had a child together.
