Columbine High faced with tragedy once again This shell-shocked community awoke to another horror Monday: the slaying of two teens at a Subway sandwich shop in a strip mall only blocks from Columbine High School. One victim, Nick Kunselman, 15, worked at the store; Stephanie Hart, 16, was his girlfriend. Both were sophomores at Columbine. As teachers told stunned students of the deaths, some broke into sobs or became distraught. "People are extremely upset. There is a sense of, 'Not again, not another senseless tragedy," said Rick Kaufman, spokesman for the Jefferson County School District. Police said they received a call just after midnight from a Subway manager, who was driving by the shop and saw the lights on, long after the 10 p.m. closing time. She went inside and discovered the teens, dead from apparent gunshot wounds, according to the sher- iffs office. The time of death has not been determined. Police were tracking information about a young white male, dressed in a red jacket and flared pants, who was seen leaving the area. They said there was a security monitor in the store but would not comment on whether a tape was recovered. Late Monday, no suspect had been identified.
