(Reuters) - Gunfire erupted on Thursday at a California high school in inland Kern County, a sheriff's department dispatcher said, and media reports indicated two people had been shot and the assailant arrested.

The dispatcher confirmed the shooting at Taft Union High School but gave no other details.

A California ABC affiliate reported that sheriff's deputies were going room-by-room to secure the school and that two people had been shot, but had no immediate word on their condition. It said the shooter had been apprehended by police.

The station, 23ABC News, reported that some people had called the station from inside the school, where they were hiding in closets.

Yup me too. Was watching HLN and they cut to the local affiliate who had a reporter at the school who reported that a female student had called her mom to tell her that her friend had just been shot and was laying on the floor next to her and that her teacher had been shot as well.

Now they're going to want to ban shotguns. We don't need to hunt. :roll:

The teacher was grazed. He then told the shooter that there would be NO shooting in his classroom and that was the end of it. Guy put down the gun and police took him away.
