There has been a school shooting at Sparks Middle School in Sparks, Nevada. Reports indicate the shooter killed a teacher and wounded two boys. The shooter was left dead, authorities said.
The incident happened around 7:15 a.m., as buses were dropping students off.
A young student shot his teacher and critically wounded two students before turning the gun on himself.
When a teacher saw the weapon, he ran over to stop the student.
Kyle Nucum, a student, told the reporters that he heard “a pop, like a loud pop, and everybody was screaming.†He said the shooter had on a Sparks Middle School uniform, and shot the teacher after the teacher told him to put the gun down.
“The teacher fell and everybody ran away,†said Nucum. “We ran across the field to get somewhere safe, and while we were running we heard about four or five more gunshots.â€
A spoke person for the hospital said the two boys arrived in critical condition. One was later upgraded to fair.
