A sheriff’s spokeswoman says three people have been injured in a shooting at Great Mills High School in southern Maryland, including the shooter. 

St. Mary's County sheriff's spokeswoman Cpl. Julie Yingling didn't know the severity of the injuries.

Yingling says the two victims were shot, but she doesn’t know how the shooter was injured.

She says all three had been transported to hospitals.

Agents from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were headed to the scene.

The county sheriff said deputies are on the scene and that parents or guardians should stay away, going instead to Leonardtown High School to reunite with Great Mills students there.

Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and Rep. Steny Hoyer tweeted that they're monitoring reports and urged people to follow the instructions of local law enforcement at the scene.

School officials report that the 'event is contained' and the campus is on lockdown.
