(CNN) -- The shooter who opened fire Friday morning at Washington state's Marysville-Pilchuck High School played football and was recently named to the homecoming court.
Freshman Jaylen Fryberg was in the school's cafeteria, went up to a table with students, "came up from behind ... and fired about six bullets into the backs of them," witness Jordan Luton told CNN. "They were his friends, so it wasn't just random," Luton said.
The attacker shot five people, killing one, authorities said. A federal law enforcement official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the shooter died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Investigators "are confident that there is only one single shooter," Marysville police spokesman Robb Lamoureux told reporters.
Four people were wounded, Sgt. Ryan Dalberg of Everett police told CNN.。。。。。。
