A federal law enforcement officer who was responding to the incident was shot in the leg by another officer. The federal officer was transported to a hospital in Odessa, Texas.
The shooting prompted a lockdown at Alpine's three public schools, which were later evacuated.
Law enforcement officials were also dealing with a series of bomb threats made in the wake of the shooting. They said they don't believe there was a connection between the threats and the shooting at the high school.
Authorities said threats were phoned in to Sul Ross State University and an Alpine hospital. There was also a threat at a motel in Marathon, Texas, about 30 miles east of Alpine.

So if the victim was shot in the lower extremities and the shooter was a female, do we assume she shot some dude in the nuts? _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.

Authorities say they believe the teenage boy who was taken into custody following a shooting at the Townville Elementary School first fatally shot his father.
Capt. Garland Major told a news conference that the shooter used a handgun and that one of the students was shot in the leg and the other in the foot. He said a female teacher was shot in the shoulder during Wednesday's shooting at Townville Elementary.
Two children and an adult were injured Wednesday afternoon when a gunman opened fire at the elementary school in South Carolina, according to multiple reports

A 14-year-old South Carolina boy was charged as juvenile with murder and attempted murder Friday, two days after he was accused of opening fire on a kindergarten class heading outside for recess.
The hearing did not address whether the prosecution will move to try the teen, whose name has not been released, as an adult. The boy's father, Jeffrey Osborne, 47, was found dead at around 1:45 p.m. Wednesday at his home, shortly before news of the shooting at Townville Elementary School surfaced.
The suspect's mother, Tiffney Osborne, cried throughout the hearing and declined to speak to the Independent Mail afterward. Her son, who was brought into the courtroom in a yellow jumpsuit and was wearing no restraints, showed no emotion and is being returned to a juvenile facility in Greenville, S.C.

The 14-year-old boy arrived at Sycamore Middle School Wednesday morning ready to carry out a deadly plan.
But there was one person he knew could talk him out of it, according to police. So after his first-period class at the school in Ashland, Tenn., he went to see her.
School counselor Molly Hudgens has been with Sycamore for almost 19 years. Sycamore Middle School website
Molly Hudgens, the school counselor, took the boy into her office and immediately sensed something was wrong. He asked some questions Hudgens found alarming and told the counselor he was having "issues," police said.
Do you have a gun? Hudgens asked.
Yes, he said, and showed her the loaded .45 caliber pistol tucked under his clothes. He told her he wanted to kill teachers and a police officer, The Tennessean reported.
Just hours later, on Wednesday afternoon, a different 14-year-old boy in South Carolina would open fire on an elementary school playground, injuring two children and an adult.
But Sycamore Middle School avoided such tragedy. After a 45-minute conversation in her office, Hudgens persuaded the teen to give up his gun, Cheatham County Sheriff Mike Breedlove said Wednesday
She did something even the most experienced law enforcement officer might not do, and refrained from shooting the teen. " Breedlove said. "Had she not been there, it could have been very different."
The boy, who has not been identified, was arrested and charged with possession of a weapon on school grounds and threatening employees. He is being held in a county jail pending his next hearing.
