A 15-year-old student shot a teacher at a San Antonio-area high school on Monday, the authorities said.
Officials said they did not have information about the condition of the teacher, who was taken to a hospital.
The student died at the scene, the Comal County Sheriff’s Office said on Facebook. It was not clear how the student died.
The sheriff’s office identified the student as male but gave no further details about him. A motive for the shooting was unknown.
There is no ongoing threat to students at the school, Hill Country College Preparatory High School, in Bulverde, Texas, the sheriff’s office said. Bulverde is about 30 miles north of San Antonio.
The school directed questions to the sheriff’s office, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The sheriff’s office first posted that it was responding to reports of a shooting at the school at 8:20 a.m. local time. By 10:08 a.m., the sheriff’s office reported that there was no longer an active shooter on the campus.
Students were taken to a nearby middle school to be reunited with their parents.
Hill Country College Preparatory High School is a public school that had 178 students last year, mostly white and Hispanic, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.
