A student who authorities say opened fire at his Colorado high school on 
Wednesday, wounding two classmates and then turning the gun on himself, 
has died, according to the local sheriff's office.

The gunfire at Evergreen High School broke out at about 12:24 p.m. local 
time, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.

Three students were taken to the hospital in critical condition following 
the gunfire, including the suspected shooter, who was injured by a self-
inflicted gunshot wound, the sheriff's office said.

The sheriff's office confirmed the suspect died in a post on social media 
Wednesday evening.

Authorities have not publicly released his identity.

One of the wounded students with non-life-threatening injuries was 
released Wednesday night, with the second wounded student remaining in 
critical condition, hospital officials said on Thursday.

A fourth student was also transported to the hospital, but with an unknown 
injury, authorities said on Wednesday.

In a statement, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis said he was "devastated" by the 
shooting.

"My heart goes out to the victims and their families as they grapple with 
this senseless act of violence," Polis said.

After the shooting, the school was placed in a lockdown and officials 
swept the campus.

"This is the scariest thing you'd think could ever happen," said Jefferson 
County sheriff spokesperson Jacki Kelley at an earlier news conference.

Kelley said she could not provide any other details about the suspected 
shooter, including the suspect's age or gender.

"I don't know if our suspect is even old enough to drive," Kelley said.

She said authorities were seeking a warrant for the student's home and 
locker.

The sheriff's office said the suspect was armed with a revolver handgun.
