Texas A&M-Commerce University Police Chief Bryan Vaughn said during a short news conference Monday afternoon that a student at the Pride Rock residence hall called university police at about 10:17 a.m., though he didn't elaborate on what the caller reported.
Vaughn said officers arrived at the coed freshman residence hall to find the bodies of two women and an injured 2-year-old child inside one of the rooms.
While initial reports from university police confirmed there were three shooting victims, Vaughn did not elaborate on the nature of the child's injuries and would only confirm the child was in stable condition.
Vaughn did not reveal any further information about the women or the child, including their identities or relationship to each other.
Investigators have not released a motive in the shooting and have not said if they were looking for any suspects, however Mark J. Rudin, president of Texas A&M University-Commerce, said the precautionary shelter in place recommendation had been lifted and that the Pride Rock residence hall and surrounding area remained blocked off due to the ongoing investigation into the "criminal incident."
Rudin took no questions during a news conference Monday afternoon but added, "Our hearts go out to everyone in the community that has been impacted by this tragedy ... the health and safety of our students is always our top priority."
During the initial hours of the investigation into the shooting, classes were canceled for the day and students were warned to take shelter and stay in place while police investigated an unspecified "criminal incident."
