SEATTLE (AP) — The 8-year-old Bremerton girl who was shot in her classroom Feb. 22 remains in serious condition Tuesday after five surgeries at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

Spokeswoman Susan Gregg-Hanson says Amina Bowman is on a ventilator, to help her breath. She is sedated, but is responsive when awake.

The hospital spokeswoman says no further surgery is scheduled at this time.
