Another day, another mass shooting

Just another day in the United States of Guns.

"Multiple people were shot at Lone Star College in Texas on Tuesday, according to local news reports.
An alert posted on the school's website warned students to take shelter.
"LSC-North Harris is locked down," the alert read. "Students, faculty and staff are advised to take immediate shelter where you are. Do not enter the campus until notified further."
Aerial footage showed SWAT team members evacuating students several buildings on the campus in North Harris County near Houston.
In interviews with local media outlets, students described a chaotic scene. A female student told KTRK-TV heard five shots fired in an area between the library and the cafeteria. Other students say they heard gunshots when they were in cafeteria."

Anyone else injured could be collateral damage. I haven't heard an official report but this is what witnesses and law enforcement are telling the interviewers.
