A shooting broke out on Umpqua Community College (UCC) campus in Roseburg, Ore. on Thursday, Oct. 1, 2015 just before 10:40 a.m.
Reports say that there were at least 13 fatalities, and upwards of 20 people were injured.
The unnamed suspect, a 26-year-old male, was confirmed deceased by the Douglas County Sheriff at approximately 1:43 p.m. Officials did not confirm if the suspect was shot by law enforcement officers.
No law enforcement officers were injured during the incident.
There are unconfirmed reports that the alleged shooter posted on the social media site “4chan” about his intentions the night before.
Agencies present at the scene included the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, and the U.S. Marshals Service to contribute to the investigation.
The shooting at UCC is the second one to occur in Roseburg. The last shooting happened at Roseburg High School back in 2006, where one student was fatally shot by another using a pistol with hollow-point rounds.
While it is against the law for students or staff to bring guns and other weapons onto the campus of any public school in Oregon, those with concealed handgun permits are allowed to bring guns onto campus, but not inside buildings
