Federal authorities say the gunman is among the 10 people who died. The sheriff said 7 additional people were wounded, three critically. The shooting happened at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, about 180 miles south of Portland, in Douglas County.
“Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum said earlier Thursday that at least 13 people had died in the shooting and another 20 were wounded, but in a news conference Thursday night Hanlin said the number of fatalities stood at 10. The sheriff acknowledged that there had been conflicting reports but that is the most accurate number they have at this time.
“Two law enforcement sources told CBS News the shooter has been identified as 26-year-old Chris Harper Mercer. Law enforcement sources also tell CBS News four guns — a combination of pistols and a rifle — were found at the scene of the shooting….

She says the gunman entered her classroom, told people to get on the ground and then asked people to stand up and state their religion before opening fire.
