Authorities in Uvalde, Texas, said a suspect is dead after at least two people were killed and several wounded in what police called a "mass casualty incident" at Robb Elementary School on Tuesday.

Police said they believe the suspect acted alone and that there were "several injuries" and "some deaths" in the shooting.

According to the Uvalde Memorial Hospital (UMH), 13 children were transferred to the facility for treatment after an active shooter was reported.

Two children were also transferred to San Antonio, about 135 km west of Uvalde, and another child is pending transfer.

Two of the individuals who arrived at UMH were deceased, the hospital said in an update online. Another hospital, University Health, said it received two patients from the shooting – one child and one adult, a 66-year-old woman in critical condition.

The school has just under 600 students enrolled.
