Thirteen people are reportedly dead, and 20 are wounded, after a shooting on Thursday at a community college in Roseburg, Oregon.
The mass shooting at Umpqua Community College (UCC) took place around 10:40 am PST. Police units from multiple jurisdictions responded, according to the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.

Douglas County Commissioner Chris Boice told CNN that the shooter is in custody. It was not immediately clear whether the shooter was injured.
