Trial starting for suspect in Des Moines school shooting that killed 2 students

The trial begins for Preston Walls, who is accused of killing two students at a Des Moines outreach center in January. Security footage shows him entering the building and shooting multiple victims, resulting in the deaths of 16-year-old Rashad Carr and 18-year-old Johnny Damron.
Preston Walls is facing two counts of first-degree murder, attempted murder, and criminal gang participation. The shooting at the outreach center was a result of a gang dispute, as the victims were members of rival gangs.
Will Keeps, the founder of the program, was injured in the shooting but has recovered. The school has reopened with enhanced security measures, and Keeps has written a memoir about his experiences and the creation of the program.
