Two people are dead and two boys are in critical condition after a shooting Monday at a middle school in Nevada, authorities say.
The shooting occurred at Sparks Middle School in Sparks, Nev. One of the dead was a staff member at the school, while the gunman died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Washoe County Emergency Manager Aaron Kenneston said, according to Reuters.
Washoe County School District Police said the suspect is “down,” but offered no further details.
Kyle Nucum, a 13-year-old student, told the Reno Gazette-Journal that he saw a classmate shoot his teacher. Nucum said the teacher spotted a student with a gun and ran over to tell him to put it down before he was shot.
