    CENTENNIAL, Colo. (AP) — A teenager who may have had a grudge against a teacher opened fire Friday with a shotgun at a suburban Denver high school, wounding two fellow students before killing himself.
   Quick-thinking students alerted the targeted teacher, who quickly left the building, and police immediately locked down the scene on the eve of the Newtown massacre anniversary, a somber reminder of how commonplace school violence has become.
    One of the wounded students, a girl, was hospitalized and in serious condition. The other student suffered minor injuries and was expected to be released from the hospital later Friday evening, Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said.
   Robinson initially reported that the girl was wounded after confronting the gunman, but he later said that did not appear to be the case.
Another nearby hospital reported that it treated a third student who was not shot.
   The gunman made no attempt to hide the weapon when he entered the school from a parking lot and started asking for the teacher by name, Robinson said         .READ STORY
