ROSEBURG, Ore. (AP) — A gunman opened fire at a rural Oregon community college Thursday, killing at least 10 people before dying in a shootout with police, authorities said.

Authorities shed no light on the gunman's motive and said they were investigating.
The shooting comes at a time when Texas colleges remain divided about the issue of weapons on campus. READ MORE
