Police and other emergency services in Texas are responding to reports of an “active shooter” at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, local officials and witnesses say. Only few details are currently available.
The incident began just before noon on Tuesday when officers were called for a shooting at or near Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, a small city about 77 miles west of San Antonio.
“There is an active shooter at Robb Elementary. Law enforcement is on site,” the school district said in a statement. “Your cooperation is needed at this time by not visiting the campus. As soon as more information is gathered it will be shared.”
The rest of the district is under a Secure Status, it added.
Details about what happened were not immediately clear, but Mayor Don McLaughlin told Fox News that at least one person was shot, after which the shooter ran into the school. The situation is ongoing with the shooter barricaded inside.
Several people in the area reported hearing gunfire, but it’s unclear whether any shots were fired inside the school itself. A large number of emergency services have been called to the scene while officers work to secure the scene.
