The February shooting at a hockey arena in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, left three people dead, plus the gunman.

The three people killed were all related to Colin Dorgan, a high school senior who is a member of the Blackstone Valley team that beat Lincoln 3-2 in quadruple overtime in the Division 2 state championship game on Wednesday, March 18.
"I truly felt it in my heart and my soul that they're still with me," Dorgan told the media after the game. "I love them so much, and they're still here and I know it."
Blackstone Valley Co-op won the Rhode Island Division II championship Tuesday night.
