Three faculty members were killed and three other school employees were wounded Friday in a shooting at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, a school spokesman said. Two of the injured victims are in critical condition, the condition of the third one is estimated as stable, foreign media reported.

A female shooting suspect was in custody and a second person was detained.

Two of the wounded are also faculty members and the other is a staff member, said Ray Garner, UA-Huntsville spokesman.

The attack took place about 4 p.m. at the university's new Shelby Center, a science and technology facility with labs, classrooms and two auditoriums. Police responded within one minute of the emergency call.
