Two school administrators were shot at a Denver high school Wednesday morning after a gun was found during a search of a student, authorities said.
The juvenile suspect remained at large and the gun was not immediately recovered following the shooting at East High School at about 10 a.m., the Denver Police Department said.

The victims were taken to area hospitals.
