Texas Tech University officials said a shooter was "at large" late Monday, as they locked down the campus and urged students and staff to "take shelter."
The shooting unfolded at the university's police department, the officials said. Officials had brought in an unnamed student for a welfare check when the student suddenly pulled out a gun and opened fire, KCBD reported.
The university did not immediately confirm any deaths or injuries from the shooting.
The suspect was described as 6 feet tall and 140 pounds with blue eyes and red hair, wearing blue jeans and a white T-shirt, KCBD added.
