The 15-year-old female suspect is led out in handcuffs by LAPD

Two students have been shot inside a Los Angeles middle school classroom Thursday morning and police arrested a female student suspect, authorities said.
The victims were described as a 15-year-old male, who is in critical condition, and a 15-year-old female, who was reported in fair condition.
An additional patient includes a 30-year-old female with minor injuries, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. That injury did not involve a gunshot wound.
A young woman was detained and is believed to be the suspect, said LAPD Officer Meghan Aguilar. A firearm has been recovered, she said. Then suspect sources said was a 12-year-old.
The campus remained on lockdown as of 10 a.m. as officers cleared a second-story classroom at the middle school. Students were led from the classroom in handcuffs, patted down and then released.

Authorities said that the lockdown and pat down of students was a precaution and that they did not believe there was another shooter.
The location initially was reported as Belmont High School. The middle school is on the same campus.
News video from a helicopter showed LAPD officers escorting a young female in handcuffs to a squad car.
Gunfire erupted shortly before 9 a.m. at Salvador B. Castro Middle School just west of the city’s downtown, police said.
The conditions of the victims were not immediately known, said Sgt. Edward Bernal of the Los Angeles Unified School District Police Department.
TV footage showed a girl with dark hair and wearing a sweatshirt being led out of the school in handcuffs.
