A shooting at a high school in Texas has left the suspect dead and at least two people injured, one of which was a police officer mistakenly shot by a US marshall responding to the scene.
The incident began at approximately 9:00 AM, when a female student opened fire on a classmate at Alpine High School in West Texas. The victim was rushed to the hospital, and their condition remains unknown. The shooter was found dead with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A police officer also suffered a gunshot injury, though Brewster County Sheriff Ronny Dodson had revealed that he was not shot by the suspect. He was, instead, accidentally shot by a US marshall responding to the first shooting.
The condition of the injured officer is also unknown. Authorities initially believed there were two shooters on the scene, though Dodson said they now believe the deceased to be the only suspect.
“It was scary, I didn’t really know what was going to happen,” William Butler, a student at Alpine, told NBC News.
