“A student got into a fight and pulled a gun,” said Police Representative Kevin Kolbye. Accordingly, more than “two or three shots” were fired. The police released a photo of the 18-year-old fugitive and warned that he was “armed and dangerous”.
The police had moved in with a large number of people after the shooting. TV pictures showed heavily armed police officers running into the school building. The school with 1,900 students was cordoned off. The students later gradually left the building. Arlington Police tweeted that the shooter was being systematically searched. Officials from several agencies, including the FBI Field Office in Dallas, were involved in the operation.

In the US, there have been repeated firearms massacres in schools in the past. In an attack at Columbine High School in the state of Colorado in 1999, 13 people were shot dead. In 2018, an ex-student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida killed 17 people. (APA / AFP / red.)
