(CNN)One person has died and a police officer was injured after a shooting at a high school on Monday in Knoxville, Tennessee, police said in a news release.

Knoxville Police Department (KPD) said multiple law enforcement agencies responded to Austin-East Magnet High School for reports of a person "who was possibly armed in the school."

When officers approached the person, shots were fired, police said.

A KPD officer was hit at least one time and taken to UT Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries, police said.

 

 

One person was pronounced dead at the scene, while another was detained for further investigation.

Sounds like the shooter is the dead person?  Glad no one else was killed.  Yeesh.

100% Accurate though

Austin? UT medical center? Knoxville? The fuck man

For real.  First thought that came to mind was LBJ High in East Austin.  While the title may technically not be incorrect, it is misleading.

Stupid title for a Longhorn message board.

So if there was a mass shooting at UTenn and someone posted "mass shooting at UT campus" without specifying which school or city you wouldn't see the issue?

While accurate you knew exactly how it would be viewed. It is horribly misleading and should be changed or deleted.

OP is an asshole.

Thread title was intentionally misleading. OP is worse than the shooter.

People are more torn up over the thread title than the shooting. Merica!

One person died and a cop was injured. Assuming it was the shooter. I think we're going to be okay.

That's some fucked up logic.

You're piggybacking a murder for memes. It's the only reason you even started the thread.
