The Brewster County Judge has released this statement on the shooting at Alpine High School:

Homeland Security confirms that the agent injured in the apparent accidental shooting at Alpine High School has been transported to Odessa Medical Center Hospital in stable condition.

The Alpine High School shooter has been identified as a 14-year-old freshman female, though her name has not yet been released.

According to a Brewster County Sheriff's Office Press Conference, a deputy was near the school when the shooting and was able to enter through the back door of the band hall where he found the shooter and recovered her weapon.

A further search by the Alpine Police Department and BCSO cleared the school, during which a victim was found with a gunshot wound to her lower backside. The shooter's injury was determined to be self-inflicted.

The school does not have a resource officer on campus.

Law enforcement from Midland, Odessa, Pecos, Fort Stockton, and Pecos immediately arrived in Alpine to help clear the school and assist with the investigation.

During that clearing a federal officer fired his weapon, injuring another federal officer. Though the shot was believed to be accidental, it is currently under investigation. The officer that was injured was transported to Odessa Medical Center Hospital in stable condition.

Brewster County Sheriff Dodson states that a 'nut' has taken advantage of the tragic situation by calling in bomb threats across the area, stretching law enforcement thin.

A note was found that read "If you thought what happened at the school was bad, wait to see what happened at Sul Ross".

The threats are all believed to have come from the same person, who law enforcement believes is a male. The bomb threats are not believed to be connected to the shooting.

The FBI has been called in to assist with an investigation of the threats. Bomb-sniffing dogs are being flown in to assist with the search.

The suspect, if arrested, would face federal charges.

Deputies with the Pecos County Sheriff's Office were able to assist in clearing and securing the Big Bend Regional Medical Center.

Authorities are also on scene at Sul Ross State University, using the help of school faculty and bomb dogs.

The alleged shooter's grandfather told Sheriff Dodson

Alpine Police responded to the school Thursday morning after hearing reports of a shooter.

The shooter reportedly entered the band hall bathroom, where she shot another female student in the lower backside.

When officers arrived on scene they heard more gunshots before finding the alleged shooter in the bathroom with an apparent self-inflicted wound.

She was also found to be armed with a semi-automatic pistol and 'plenty of ammunition', according to Sheriff Dodson.

Multiple law enforcement agencies responded to the scene and assisted in clearing the school. During this time a U.S. Marshal accidentally fired at a Homeland Security Investigations officer, wounding him. According to Sheriff Dodson this was considered accidental.
