Guard at school shooting may have shot at deputies and wounded student

An armed security guard at a Colorado school may have mistakenly fired on sheriff's deputies and wounded a student amid a highly chaotic shooting rampage at the campus this week, authorities told ABC News on Thursday.

Investigators are probing the security guard's actions during the chaos that broke out Tuesday afternoon at the Highlands Ranch STEM School when two students allegedly opened fire on classmates, killing one student and injuring others, a law enforcement official with knowledge of the investigation told ABC News.

Detectives are trying to determine if gunshots directed at Douglas County Sheriff's deputies responding to the scene were mistakenly fired by the security guard, whose name has not been released, and whether the guard shot and wounded a student during the episode, a law enforcement official said.

The source cautioned that the investigation is in the early stages and investigators are speaking with the security guard to determine all the facts.

This is why you don't want rent-a-cops or armed untrained teachers in school.

Guns solve all problems. More guns everywhere make everywhere safer. An armed society is a polite society.
