Plano teen dies from staph infection
PLANO — Chad Jeter, 15, a sophomore at Williams High School in Plano, died from a staph infection Thursday; he cut his knee while skateboarding. The Collin County Health Care Services Department said it's not the contagious MRSA infection, and there's no evidence that it came from school or that other students were exposed to it.
