Last School Blast Victim Released From Hospital
A 7-year-old girl, the last of the children burned in a bomb blast during an aborted hostage-taking at a school in Cokeville, Wyo., has been released from the University of Utah Health Sciences Center, officials said Wednesday.
Billie Jo Hutchinson was discharged Tuesday from the hospital’s burn unit. She had been seriously injured on May 16 when David and Doris Young took 150 students and teachers hostage in an elementary school and demanded $2-million ransom for each hostage. The couple died during the incident.
