Four injured in Texas school shooting; suspect sought

Four people were injured at a school shooting in Texas after a possible fight between a student and another person during class, Arlington police said Wednesday.

Two of those injured suffered gunshot wounds, Arlington Assistant Police Chief Kevin Kolbye said. He said he did not know the extent of their injuries.

Arlington police have identified the suspect as a student, 18-year-old Timothy George Simpkins, and are asking for the public’s help in finding him.

Simpkins should be considered armed and dangerous, Mansfield Police Chief Tracy Aaron said.

“Please call 911 if you know the whereabouts of 18-year-old Timothy George Simpkins who may be driving a 2018 Silver Dodge Charger with license plate PFY-6260,” Arlington police tweeted.

I was live on Facebook for a few minutes but couldn't get a good signal. So many police. Scared parents. One dad in a pickup truck drove past the policed barriers to get to his kid.

Fuck the Texas GOP.
