Shooting Houston College- 4 in Hospital

A statement from the Harris County Sheriff's Office identifies the suspect as Carlton Berry. Spokesman Alan Bernstein says Berry is charged with aggravated assault but remains hospitalized with wounds suffered in the shooting.

The college, which has 19,000 students, was evacuated, and Houston police officers and Harris County sheriff’s deputies spent hours clearing the buildings and deeming them safe. The campus was scheduled to reopen on Wednesday. 

Officials with the Sheriff’s Office said they received the first call at 12:19 p.m. They said they did not know what the dispute was about. No arrests were made, but the authorities detained and were questioning the two men they believed were involved in the argument. Both of the men were hospitalized with injuries and were described as persons of interest by the authorities. One of the men had student identification, but officials had not confirmed that he was enrolled at the college.  More News
