Officials said 14 students and one teacher are dead and more than a dozen have been injured. Governor Greg Abbott said of the 18-year-old shooter: "He is deceased, and it is believed that responding officers killed him.

“It is believed that two responding officers were struck by rounds, but have no serious injuries.”
