TOWNVILLE, S.C. (AP) – The Latest on a school shooting in South Carolina (all times local):

9:25 a.m.

Online donors have given more than $80,000 to help the family of a 6-year-old South Carolina boy who was critically injured in a shooting at a rural elementary school.

A gofundme page set up by a friend of Jacob Hall’s family on Thursday already had raised about $83,000 by Friday morning.

A note from the person who established the fundraising drive, Travis Paige, says the boy’s parents have to miss work to be with him in the hospital and need financial assistance.
