A short time later, Irving police reported on Twitter that there appeared “to be no continuing threat,” adding that law enforcement officers were continuing to search the campus to ensure all was safe.
A separate Twitter post added: “We have what appears to be one victim deceased (and) the shooter has committed suicide.”

Irving Police spokesman James McLellan told reporters earlier there had been radio chatter about injuries.
After police said the shooter was dead, college officials announced the school would be closed for the rest of the day.
Overhead video footage of the scene broadcast by local news media showed students filing out of school buildings as police evacuated the campus. Earlier, video clips showed students in groups running for safety and numerous police vehicles on campus.
