Lois Lerner, the midlevel Internal Revenue Service official at the center of a controversy over treatment of small-government groups, Wednesday invoked her right not to testify after reading a statement denying that she had committed any COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Police say the gunman has died after a shooting that killed a law enforcement officer and another civilian near the Texas A&M University campus.
Bryan Police Department spokesman Jon Agnew says two other law enforcement officers and another woman also were injured in the Monday shooting in College Station. Bryan police are assisting in the investigation.
Assistant College Station Police Chief Scott McCollum identified the officer killed as Brazos County Constable Brian Bachmann.
Agnew said officers had earlier established a perimeter around the area just east of campus, but they didn't believe a second suspect was involved.
Agnew said police don't know whether the shooter was a student at A&M.
The university issued an alert on its website just before 12:30 p.m., warning of an active shooter near the campus football stadium, Kyle Field. The warning told residents and students to avoid the area, and was later updated with the shooter being taken into custody.
Texas A&M spokeswoman Sherylon Carroll said she could not confirm any injuries or details about the shooting, but said most students were not on campus Monday and that the fall semester does not begin until Aug. 27.
College Station is about 90 miles northwest of Houston. Texas A&M is home to more than 50,000 students, according to its website.
