Police says a student opened fire at a Dallas-area school Monday morning, killing one student and injuring another before being arrested on a capital murder charge
Arlington police investigate a shooting at Lamar High School in Arlington, Texas on Monday, March 20, 2023. ARLINGTON, Texas — — A student opened fire at a Dallas-area school Monday morning, killing one student and injuring another before being arrested on a capital murder charge, police said.
Arlington police Chief Al Jones said Monday that a male student who was shot died at a hospital and a female victim was receiving medical care after being “grazed" by shrapnel, causing injures that aren't life threatening. He declined to give their ages or grades. The gunman ran from the scene without ever entering the Lamar High School building and was taken into custody by responding officers “within minutes,” Jones said. He said investigators recovered a gun used in the shooting but the shooter's motive and where he got the weapon remain unclear.
Arlington Independent School District spokeswoman Anita Foster said the school went into lockdown during the shooting but school buses and other arriving students were diverted from the campus before classes were set to begin. Police said they completed their search of the school at 10:40 a.m.
