One person shot at Texas high school and two shooters thought to be on the loose, police say https://t.co/P99NG4VizQ

UPDATE: Just one shooter, a female, and she's died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Fox News, CNN, NBC News, and a local ABC News affiliate are now reporting that the situation at the Alpine High School has concluded, with two people being shot and wounded. The shooter, a female, shot another student before killing herself. The second person wounded was a police officer that was shot in a friendly fire incident by a federal marshal who was responding to the shooting.
The female shooter opened fire on her classmate in a bathroom around 11 a.m. ET. Alpine and the surrounding schools remain on lockdown.
Now, given the media's penchant to report on shootings, saying we're a shooting gallery, pushing gun control, and the various sub-discussions about angry white males and poisonous masculinity, will the media report with fervor on this tragic incident? My guess is probably not.
