WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (WGHP) -- A school shooting shut down a high school in Winston-Salem.
There is a large police presence at the school.
Other schools in the area are locked down as well, but this is out of an abundance of caution, not a report of any secondary incidents.
The Forsyth County Sheriff's Department confirmed it was a shooting on their Facebook page. One student was injured and all other students are safe, according to police.
Winston-Salem police has a hazardous devices unit on scene. They are actively looking for the suspect.
Police say the campus is secure.
Parents are asked to go to the Harris Teeter on Peacehaven Road and are advised that busses might be delayed in the afternoon.
A couple at the scene says their daughter was at the school at the time of the shooting. They were able to get in touch with their daughter and confirmed that she is OK.
"Your heart stops for a few minutes until you finally get in touch with them," the father said.
FOX8 has a crew on the scene and this story will be updated as details emerge.
