A heavily armed student gunman was taken into custody after entering a classroom with the word 'Surprise!' and shooting 10 people to death inside Santa Fe High School in Texas this morning.

Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said the 17-year-old male suspect was taken into custody and a second person of interest was detained.

The majority of the deceased victims were students, according to Gonzalez.

As many as a dozen others were wounded, among them a police officer who was reportedly shot in the shoulder.

The gunman carried out the massacre with an AR-15-style rifle, a pistol and a shotgun.

Responding law enforcement officials later found pipe bombs both inside the school and at a site off campus, and urged town residents to be vigilant and call 911 if they see anything suspicious.

The Santa Fe Independent School District said in a statement Friday that authorities are in the process of rendering the recovered explosive devices safe.

There’s no indication how many devices have been found.


Law enforcement early in Texas identified the suspected Santa Fe school shooter on Friday afternoon as Dimitrios 'Dimitri' Pagourtzis, 17.


He is now in custody.


Tyler Turner, a senior at Santa Fe High School, said one of his friends pulled the fire alarm when he first saw the shooter walking down the corridor with a gun.

This is coming days after Gaza violence killing

But God pass them all

Caliphate idiots

Thank you President Donald John Trump for destabilising ISIS, Boko Haram and other Islamic fighting group.

Are you guys just brainless like waste papers??

What correlation does the school shootings have with the event in gaza??

The gun loving and school shootings folks are white trump racist supporters.

More gun control tantrum.

Again?? Why can’t THE GOOD OLD OF U.S of A ban guns just like the UK did about 21 years ago.. Even if you want to own a gun at least proper background check should be observed..

I blame TRUMP!


RIP TO THE VICTIMS! AND MAY GOD COMFORT THEIR PARENTS/GUARDIANS.

Mad pple plenty for usa. Well he is white he wont be tagged terrorist

No security is assured all over the world. Confusion transmission

Where is clarocuzioo? So how come the almighty America didn't forsee and prevent this? I have told you already the govt can't defeat Fulani herdsmen the way you are expecting them to. Guerilla tactics works on every country in the world no matter how advanced it may be

did america sch shooting is becoming unbecoming. it is one too much. innocent kids for God sake.

america and guns are twins. 15 years ago i was a para medic at illnois. i saw blood

The government and media will ruin USA.

If this had happened in Nigeria, we'd be tagged insecure and foreigners would be shipped back in droves, but it is Amerlicka and Trump the capitalist is dining at the table of Smithson & Wesson

Look at how good arming teachers have helped the ten dead students, obviously Trump failed to teach the teachers how to use a gun

Ahn Ahn, again?? There is something deeply wrong with this society.

are you stupid or mumu. What's wrong with the Republican party allowing for more background checks. But the NRA which backs them won't allow it cause they want ROI

What is going on in America with guns
Let's hear what they will say since he's not a Muslim

Dear, this world is filled with frustrations everywhere. No good news everywhere.

Something light such as this is what eases many of life's trauma.

It's not funny though, but what do we do?

America is a bleeped up country.
Despite the level of security in place, their greatest threat, in recent times, seems to be their citizens, especially kids below 18.
They'd better review their gun laws.

This is the THIRD school shooting in EIGHT days.

Trump had better have a rethink, swallow his pride and make good Obama's gun restriction laws.

Again? That's one of the effects of allowing people to own guns with little or no stress.

This freedom has indeed been abused. Its terrible
