Arapahoe High School in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area is reportedly on lock-down after shots were fired Friday afternoon, Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson told Call 7.
Robinson said that at least two people are injured, their conditions unknown, and the shooter is believed to still be in the school.
