description: "Rachel Joy Scott was an American student who was the first victim of the Columbine High School massacre, in which twelve other students and one teacher were killed by Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, who then committed suicide. During the time of the massacre, Scott was eating lunch with her friend Richard Castaldo outside the school, when Eric Harris shot her four times with a Hi-Point 995. Castaldo survived, but Scott died from the injuries she sustained. Her body was left outside and was not retrieved until the following morning."
