A 17-year-old male student, Austin Wyatt Rollins, shot two other students at Great Mills High School in Maryland on Tuesday morning before a school resource officer engaged him and stopped the threat, authorities said. The incident began in a school hallway at 7:55 a.m., just before classes started. Authorities say Austin Wyatt Rollins, armed with a handgun, shot a female and a male student. The shooter had a prior relationship with the female student, St. Mary’s County Sheriff Tim Cameron said. The shooter and a school resource officer each fired a round, but authorities don’t know if the officer’s bullet killed the suspect, Cameron said. The officer, whom Cameron identified as St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Deputy Blaine Gaskill, was not hurt. Rollins was later pronounced dead. The 16-year-old female student is in critical condition with life-threatening injuries, and the 14-year-old male student who was shot is in stable condition.
