Armed Texas eighth-grader shot and killed by police
(CNN) -- A 15-year-old student was shot and killed by police after he brandished a weapon in the hallways of a south Texas middle school, officials said Wednesday.
"The student engaged the officers and was shot," the Brownsville Police Department said in a statement.
An ambulance was called, and it rushed the student to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to Israel Tapia, a spokesman for Cameron County Justice of the Peace Kip V. Johnson Hodge.
No other students or employees were injured.
School officials and students have since been sent to a nearby high school gymnasium while authorities investigate.
