A gunman killed a student at the high school east of Portland Tuesday and the shooter is also dead, police said.
When shots were fired Tuesday morning at Reynolds High School in Troutdale, Ore., police in Clark County dropped what they were doing and responded to the incident.
In total, 12 Clark County sheriff’s deputies, eight Vancouver police officers and six Camas police officers helped out.
“It’s those initial phases in a situation, like an active shooter, where you really want to get an adequate number of resources on scene so you can contain the situation,” said Clark County Sheriff’s Sgt.
