One of the three dead is the shooter. With the shooter down, Aztec Mayor Sally Burbridge said there is no longer a threat to Aztec as a result of this incident.
Local and state police are investigating the shooting alongside agents from the FBI. At this time, it’s not clear who the victims were, where on school grounds the shooting took place, or any possible motive of the shooter. This story will be updated as that information becomes available.
San Juan County Sheriff Ken Christesen told Fox News that the dead are “believed” to be students.
