Just breaking on Fox news a shooting at a college in Texas. Unconfirmed reports of 2 or 3 victims, and shots being fired inside the library at the school. Faculty and students being advised to shelter in place. Reports coming in that one person might be in custody, and a hunt for a second suspect is underway. All this is unconfirmed information.
HARRIS COUNTY, Texas -- At least two people have been shot at Lone Star Community in North Harris County, according to Precinct 4 deputy constables.
One person is in custody. Dozens of law enforcement officers are searching for a second suspect on the loose. A reporter for KVUE's sister station KHOU saw one male being brought out of the library on a stretcher. At least one other person was being treated by EMS crews outside the library when KHOU's helicopter flew over.
Other crews were entering the library with stretchers as students filed out. The only thing campus officials could confirm is that the school is on lockdown. Several Aldine ISD schools are also on lockdown while the search for the suspect continues.
They are Nimitz High School, Nimitz 9th Grade Campus, Parker Intermediate and Dunn Clifford Elementary.
Unconfirmed reports also coming in that this could have been gang related. I have no source as it was stated live on the news.
[Updated at 3:06 p.m. ET] Someone – a fourth person – suffered a heart attack, according to a federal law enforcement source who is receiving reports from the scene, CNN's Carol Cratty reports.
So, recapping what we've been told:
– Three people, including a gunman, were wounded in a shooting between two people on the North Harris campus of Lone Star College in Houston, school spokesman Jed Young said.
– The second gunman is on the loose but not believed to be on campus, Young said.
– A fourth person suffered a heart attack, according to the federal law enforcement source.
– The shooting happened at a campus library, the federal law enforcement source says.
– No deaths have been reported.
This story is developing. We'll post more details as we get them.

Wondering why this keeps happening, and why people are all the sudden starting to snap? This is starting to become a regular occurrence which is not good. My question is why schools?

Seriously though, you Americans need to start making decisions soon, the only country were a piece of metal is more valuable than your own children.
Well considering America is up to its teeth in ammo and most people have mental health issues, surely it'd be quicker to just ban Americans.
