Social media has steadily grown to become a significant component of mass casualty events, bringing breaking news from the scene before more established outlets can sift through the noise.

The sheriff's deputies in Harris County, Texas are reporting that at least twelve people were wounded in a stabbing incident at Lone Star College just before noon, local time. A suspect as been detained, but officials report that another suspect is still at large.

At least three people sustained multiple gunshot wounds today at Lone Star College in Houston, Texas, apparently the result of an argument in which guns were drawn. One of the two alleged shooters is in custody, and the college says the "situation is under control."
