Television station KHOU and the Houston Chronicle are citing unnamed federal, county and police officials following the shooting early Friday at Santa Fe High School, about 30 miles (48 kilometers) southeast of Houston. Wire services have still not confirmed reports of fatalities. The school district has confirmed an unspecified number of injuries but is not immediately releasing further details. Assistant Principal Cris Richardson says a suspect “has been arrested and secured.” School officials say law enforcement officers are working to secure the building “and initiate all emergency management protocols to release and move students to another location.” [caption id=“attachment_2606160” align=“alignleft” width=“380”] ![Representative image.

Teachers yelled out to students to run to a nearby gas station, students who escaped told news networks. One student told Houston television station KTRK that a gunman came into her first-period class and started shooting. The student says she saw one girl with a bloody leg as the class evacuated.
