LOS ANGELES (AP) — Two students were shot inside a Los Angeles middle school classroom Thursday morning and police arrested a female student suspect, authorities said.
A 15-year-old boy who was shot was transported to a trauma center in critical condition, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. A 15-year-old girl with a gunshot wound was taken to a hospital in fair condition, a department statement said.
A 30-year-old woman who was not shot suffered unspecified minor injuries, the statement said.
The gunfire erupted shortly before 9 a.m. at Salvador B. Castro Middle School just west of the city's downtown, police said.
Television news footage showed a girl with dark hair and wearing a sweatshirt being led out of the school in handcuffs a short time later.
"With the suspect in custody the situation is under control," said Sgt. Edward Bernal of the Los Angeles Unified School District Police Department.
A gun was recovered, Bernal told KTLA-TV.
