A gunman opened fire at a high school in Colorado on Friday, wounding two fellow students before killing himself, authorities said.
One of the students who was wounded confronted the gunman at Arapahoe High School in Centennial, who shot the youth, Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said. That student was in surgery in serious condition, he said.
The student was reported in good condition with a minor gunshot wound.
The shooter, a male student, said he was looking for a specific teacher by name when the incident began about 12:30 p.m. (2:30 p.m. ET), Robinson said.
"The teacher exited the school immediately, which was, in my opinion, the most important decision he could have made," Robinson said. "It was a very good tactical decision to try to take the student with him."
Police found the shooter in a classroom about 20 minutes after they began their search, Robinson said. He said investigators knew his identity and were talking to his family.

The terms shooter or perp or POS should be sufficient.
CO gun laws are not severe enough, obviously.
Killed himself, well that’s convenient
:: he was looking for a specific teacher by name...The teacher exited the school immediately ::
George Costanza at the ATM?
One of the students shot actually stopped the shooter.
The shooter when confronted shot the kid, then killed himself.
The student who stood up to the shooter deserves an award, given how liberals think he will probably be suspended for it.
Impossible, I don’t believe it. This school is a gun free zone.
No, at the little girls birthday party, remember when the stove caught fire?
LOl. Yup!
Yes, there is the occasional nutball that attracts all the news media attention, but I know middle-aged middle-class mature surbanites that are about ready to twist off.
Isn’t “gunman” a highly bigoted term.
As the article points out, this shooting not only took place near Columbine, but “it’s also in the same county where James Eagan Holmes is accused of having killed 12 people in a movie theater in the town of Aurora last year.”
Must be something in the water around there. They should limit all students to bottled water until further notice.
“Because of all the media hype, and the glorification of past murderers, there will be more of this.”
I said that after the last mass murder.
No. But it may be sexist. :-)
exactly ....continuous propaganda year after year...
on a lighter note...

Liberals are cowards. Every one of them. They only feel brave when they are hiding behind a computer or they outnumber you by at least 10:1.
George Costanza at the ATM?
Was Bosco involved?
The portions of the autopsy that involve whatever drugs, such as Ritalin, were in the kid’s system need to be made public.
