Three people have non-life-threatening injuries, and one person is in serious condition because of a shooting at Wilmer-Hutchins High School in Dallas.

It happened almost exactly a year after a similar shooting on the Southeast Dallas campus.

What We Know

Dallas and Dallas ISD police responded to calls about a shooting on the campus around 1 p.m. on Tuesday.

Dallas Fire-Rescue officials confirmed four people were taken to the hospital.

Three of those people were shot and one was grazed. One person has serious injuries and all others have non-life-threatening injuries.

The three victims ranged in age from 15 to 18. The age of the fourth victim is unknown.

Sources told FOX 4 said at least one 17-year-old male student was shot in the lower leg.

Dallas Mayor Pro Temp Tennel Atkins all of victims are expected to recover.

"We don't have a serious injury right now to my knowledge. Pray for the family. Pray for the kids. Pray for the students. And thank God no one is crucially injured," he said.

Images from SKY 4 show a heavy police response at the school on Tuesday afternoon with numerous ambulance vehicles.

Students could also be seen leaving the campus and heading toward Wilmer-Hutchins Eagles Stadium.

What They're Saying

Sergio Campos, a Wilmer City Council member and parent, said he was on campus at the time of the shooting for a meeting with his child’s teacher.

He heard about seven gunshots and then saw one or two victims being carried outside. One of them appeared to have a leg injury.

"The kids were just running out, all of them just hundreds of kids running out," he said.

Freshman Salondra Ibanez heard the gunshots from her classroom.

"My teacher, she was going over our work and we heard a gunshot. At first, I was just trying to process it because usually they have like little things they smack in the halls, like they play around. So like, I was processing it and it went off again and it was faster this time. So that’s when me and my classmates, we got up and we went behind the teacher’s desk and I was making sure my classmates were okay and then we went into the storage room and we waited there until we got escorted out," she said.

What We Don't Know

Police still haven't released any of the circumstances surrounding the shooting.

There's no word yet on the shooter or the status of the shooter.

It's also unclear whether all of the victims are students.
