Tiroteo en una escuela de Dallas: un joven de 17 años fue detenido tras herir a cuatro estudiantes
Un nuevo episodio de violencia escolar en Estados Unidos sacudió a Texas este martes, cuando un tiroteo en la escuela secundaria Wilmer-Hutchins, ubicada al sur de Dallas, dejó cuatro estudiantes heridos y provocó una fuerte respuesta policial.
Horas más tarde, las autoridades identificaron y arrestaron a Tracy Haynes, un adolescente de 17 años, que es el principal sospechoso del ataque.

Según informó el Departamento de Bomberos y Rescate de Dallas, tres estudiantes sufrieron heridas de bala, mientras que el cuarto presentó una lesión musculoesquelética en la parte inferior del cuerpo. Los heridos —todos varones— fueron trasladados a hospitales en estado grave, pero fuera de peligro.
Un adolescente se entregó y enfrenta cargos graves
La Policía Escolar del Distrito Independiente de Dallas confirmó que Tracy Haynes fue detenido a las 21:32 del martes, luego de entregarse voluntariamente en el Centro de Justicia Lew Sterrett.
El joven enfrenta cargos por asalto agravado con arma de fuego en el contexto de un tiroteo masivo. Su fianza fue fijada en 600.000 dólares.
La entrega del sospechoso se produjo gracias a la intervención de Urban Specialists, una organización comunitaria que trabaja con jóvenes en riesgo. Su presidente, Antong Lucky, contó que un familiar de Haynes llamó preocupado a la línea directa del grupo y él mismo organizó un encuentro con el joven y su familia en la sede de la organización, en 1401 Botham Jean Blvd.
Haynes le dijo a Lucky: “Quiero hacerme cargo de esto”. El dirigente comunitario relató que le respondió: “Estoy impresionado. No debés huir, tenés que enfrentarlo de frente”. Luego de una charla emocional y una oración con miembros del equipo, acompañaron al adolescente hasta el centro de detención, donde fue entregado a las autoridades.
Un nuevo antecedente de violencia en la misma escuela
Este incidente no es el primero en la Wilmer-Hutchins High School. En abril de 2024, otro estudiante fue baleado en una pierna dentro del establecimiento. La repetición de hechos violentos vuelve a generar preocupación por la seguridad escolar en Dallas.
“Francamente, esto se está volviendo demasiado familiar. Y no debería serlo”, expresó Stephanie Elizalde, superintendente del Distrito Escolar Independiente de Dallas, en una conferencia de prensa.
Las clases fueron suspendidas por el resto de la semana y se dispuso la presencia de consejeros psicológicos para asistir a estudiantes, docentes y familias.
¿Cómo ingresó el arma a la escuela?
Uno de los aspectos más inquietantes del caso es cómo ingresó el arma al establecimiento, que cuenta con detectores de metales y una política obligatoria de mochilas transparentes. La subjefa de la policía escolar, Christina Smith, afirmó que el arma no fue introducida durante el horario regular de entrada.
“No fue una falla de nuestro personal, de nuestros protocolos ni de las máquinas que tenemos”, aclaró Smith. Al ser consultada por más detalles, las autoridades se negaron a comentar.
El operativo policial en el campus —que alberga a unos 1000 estudiantes— fue amplio. Las imágenes transmitidas por canales locales mostraron múltiples patrulleros y ambulancias en las inmediaciones del edificio.
Familia en shock y temor entre los padres
La tía del joven detenido, Cynthia Haynes, manifestó su sorpresa al enterarse de la implicación del adolescente. Dijo que la familia está en estado de shock y sostuvo: “No fue criado así. Viene de una buena familia”.
Por su parte, Shauna Williams, madre de dos alumnos de la escuela, afirmó que evalúa retirar a sus hijos del sistema presencial para educarlos en casa. “No puedo seguir pasando por esto como madre”, expresó en declaraciones a KDFW. “Es muy aterrador pensar en perder a tu hijo, a tus hijos”.
Reacción política
El gobernador de Texas, Greg Abbott, se refirió al hecho mediante un comunicado. “Nuestros corazones están con las víctimas de este acto de violencia sin sentido”, expresó.
La motivación detrás del tiroteo aún no ha sido revelada, y la investigación sigue en desarrollo. Las autoridades trabajan para reconstruir la secuencia de hechos y determinar cómo el arma logró ingresar al edificio escolar.

Israeli military arrests Greta Thunberg, flotilla activists after intercepting dozens of boats
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Israeli naval forces intercepted 39 vessels from a Gaza-bound aid flotilla on Thursday, detaining dozens of activists — including international climate activist Greta Thunberg and several European lawmakers, The Associated Press reported.
The Global Sumud Flotilla, which set out across the Mediterranean with more than 40 boats carrying about 500 activists, was the largest yet to attempt to break Israel’s blockade of the enclave, according to the AP.
The flotilla has since been reduced to a single vessel still headed toward Gaza. Organizers with the Global Sumud Flotilla said on X that the boat was last tracked only a few miles off Gaza’s coast before contact was lost. Activists told the AP that they believed the flotilla’s size would make it harder for Israeli forces to intercept every vessel.
Photos and surveillance footage captured the moment Israeli soldiers in helmets and night vision goggles boarded the flotilla. A photo from Israel’s foreign ministry showed Thunberg, the most prominent of the flotilla’s passengers, accompanied by soldiers following the interception. Israeli officials said those detained included Thunberg, former Barcelona Mayor Ada Colau and European Parliament member Rima Hassan, according to the AP.

Israel’s foreign ministry said on X that the activists were «safe and in good health» and would be transferred to Israel to be deported to Europe.
«The Hamas-Sumud provocation is over,» the Israel’s foreign ministry said in a post on X Thursday. «None of the Hamas-Sumud provocation yachts has succeeded in its attempt to enter an active combat zone or breach the lawful naval blockade. All the passengers are safe and in good health. They are making their way safely to Israel, from where they will be deported to Europe.»
«One last vessel of this provocation remains at a distance,» the post added. «If it approaches, its attempt to enter an active combat zone and breach the blockade will also be prevented.»

News of the interception also drew condemnation and sparked demonstrations in cities including Rome, Naples, Istanbul, Athens and Buenos Aires, the AP said. Italy’s largest trade union announced a one-day general strike for Friday in protest, while more rallies were expected across the globe on Thursday, the outlet added.

The flotilla is part of a series of international efforts to challenge Israel’s blockade, which has been in place since 2007 after Hamas took control of Gaza. Previous attempts by activist flotillas to break the blockade have largely failed and sometimes sparked deadly clashes, including during the 2010 Gaza Freedom Flotilla raid.
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and the Global Sumud Flotilla did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

El éxodo de la ciudad de Gaza está desbordando los esfuerzos de socorro, según las agencias de ayuda
Palestinos huyen hacia el sur de la Ciudad de Gaza el 24 de septiembre de 2025. En medio del ataque terrestre del ejército israelí contra la Ciudad de Gaza, la enorme afluencia de gazatíes que huyen hacia el sur ha sobrecargado aún más los servicios humanitarios, que, según organizaciones de ayuda, eran insuficientes incluso antes de la llegada de muchos miles más.

Media bashes Trump admin messaging for pinning shutdown on Dems, White House fires back
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE: The White House responded to various reports that President Donald Trump’s administration is breaking federal law by including commentary that blames Senate Democrats for the government shutdown in out-of-office emails and letters furloughing federal employees.
A number of reports suggested that including partisan messaging in official emails and communication channels could be a violation of the Anti-Lobbying Act, which prevents federal funding from being used in lobbying efforts.
«The Trump Administration is committed to sharing the truth with the American people, and it’s simply a fact that the Democrats shut down the government,» White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital. «Democrats opposed the clean CR that they supported just 6 months ago and 13 times under the Biden Administration because they want free health care for illegal aliens.»

WHITE HOUSE PREPARES FOR ‘IMMINENT’ FEDERAL LAYOFFS AFTER DEMOCRATS FORCE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN
«And now, the Democrats are upset the Administration is sharing the truth — they are desperately trying to lie to the American people because they know their shutdown is hurting families and workers around the country,» Jackson added. «Unfortunately for the Democrats, facts are facts.»
Atop the Department of Justice website, a red banner reads: «Democrats have shut down the government. Department of Justice websites are not currently regularly updated.»
Fox News Digital obtained a DOJ memo which was sent to all employees of the agency outlining the plan for furloughing federal employees in the event of a shutdown, stating DOJ «has contingency plans in place for executing an orderly shutdown of activities that would be affected by any lapse in appropriations forced by Congressional Democrats.»

JOHNSON SAYS SCHUMER HANDED TRUMP ‘KEYS TO THE KINGDOM’ WITH GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN DECISION
«Unfortunately, Democrats are blocking this Continuing Resolution in the U.S. Senate due to unrelated policy demands,» the memo continues. «A funding lapse will result in certain Department activities ceasing due to a lack of appropriated funding, and designated pre-notified employees will be furloughed subject to certain laws and regulations.»
On visiting the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) website, a pop-up appears on the center page reading that reads: «The Radical Left in Congress shut down the government. HUD will use available resources to help Americans in need.»
Reports also suggested that the administration may be in violation of the Hatch Act, a federal law that prevents tax dollars from being spent in a partisan or politically biased manner, as a result of the messaging.

SHUTDOWN EXPLAINED: WHO WORKS, WHO DOESN’T AND HOW MUCH IT COSTS
Legal expert Andrew Cherkasy, co-founder of Golden Law, Inc. and former Air Force JAG, told Fox News Digital that «the Hatch Act does not apply to the President or Vice President. It does apply to most other federal employees.»
«The law is intended to prohibit government officials from using their official authority to interfere with, or affect elections,» Cherkasky explained. «The President of the United States and his agents under his authority have an unquestionable constitutional right to speak directly to the American people about what is happening in their government and who is responsible for it.»
The Hatch Act, which was signed into law in 1939, is enforced by the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC), and is also designed to keep federal employees from influencing or interfering with elections while working in any official capacity.

BLAME GAME: GOP SPOTLIGHTS ‘SCHUMER SHUTDOWN’ WHILE DEMS LASH OUT AT REPUBLICANS AHEAD OF 2026 MIDTERMS
«For years, unelected bureaucrats and left-leaning agencies openly leaked, editorialized, and interfered in policy debates without consequence,» Cherkasky told Fox. «The Hatch Act does not prohibit the President from holding democrats accountable for shutting down the government.»
The Biden Administration also partook in messaging that pushed certain legislation. Biden’s Office of Management and Budget issued a statement regarding the Right to IVF Act last June, stating: «When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade nearly two years ago, it paved the way for Republican elected officials’ extreme, out-of-touch agenda, which has eroded access to reproductive health care for families across the country.»
The Obama Administration issued similar messaging in 2013 specifically blaming Republicans for a government shutdown threat, saying «House Republicans are pushing the Government toward shutdown.»
The federal government entered a partial shutdown at midnight Wednesday morning after a bill that would fund the government through Nov. 21 failed in the Senate.
Senate Democrats pushed for Obamacare subsidies that were set to expire to be included in the legislation, and reportedly felt sidelined in negotiations surrounding government funding.

Despite a Republican majority in both the House and the Senate, the spending bill requires 60 votes to pass in the Senate, meaning some Democrat senators will need to break ranks with Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to prevent the bill from failing.
