 The 17-year-old shot during an attack on Colorado’s Arapahoe high school eight days ago has died. Colorado Public Radios Megan Verlee reports Claire Davis had been in the coma 1 since the shooting.

 
Littleton Adventist Hospital where the girl was being treated announced her passing in a statement on its Facebook page. It read despite the best efforts of our physicians and nursing staff and Claire’s fighting spirit, her injuries were too severe and most advanced medical treatments could not prevent this tragic 2 loss of life. Davis was shot in the head at close range by a fellow classmate on December 13th. She was an apparent innocent bystander to the attack. Senior Karl Pierson was targeting the school’s debate coach. He took his own life minutes later. For NPR News, I am Megan Verlee in Denver.

Four US military personal were injured in the violence today during a mission to evacuate 4 Americans. The Obama administration is calling on South Sudanese leaders to help protect US citizens, but as NPR’s Gregory Warner tells us that may not be possible.
 
This area where this incident took place is not under government control, is under control of a militia 5 force that broke off from the army that has sort of pledge of allegiance to the deposed 6 vice president of the country who is now in hiding. So there is no communication from the forces in control of this town and certainly the government said this was not us even people to fighting.

The Roman Catholic Church and Church of England have declared that they will battle each other. As Fiona Zublin reports this time they will face off on the cricket pitch. 
 
The Vatican cricket club was formed last October to allow Catholic seminaries and priests in Roma to play each other. But they had not real advisories 20 so the Vatican teams known as the Vatican XI called on the Anglican Church to create an opposing team. The Archbishop of Canterbury accepted the challenge and two sides plan to play each other at Lord’s in London in September which will allow the Anglicans time to assembly a team. The Church of England split from the Roman Catholic Church in 1534 during the ruling of King Henry VIII.

The players will wear the seal of papacy, two crossed keys on their jackets. For NPR News, I am Fiona Zublin.
