Nate Hatch, who was shot by his cousin, Jaylen Fryberg, at Marysville-Pilchuck High School in Washington last Friday, sent out a tweet, saying he forgives him.
“I love you and I forgive you jaylen rest in peace,” wrote Hatch.
The 14-year-old Hatch, who is hospitalized in satisfactory condition, was walking with the help of a nurse Monday, according to the CNN report. Hatch was told by doctors that he can never play football again because of the facial injuries he suffered in the shooting, according to his grandfather, Dan Hatch. Nate Hatch is scheduled to have another surgery Thursday.
Zoe Galasso and Gia Soriano were both killed by Jaylen Fryberg, who shot himself to death. Shayle Chuckulnaski, 14, and Andrew Fryberg, 15, remained in critical condition Tuesday.
