Shooting at Florida college
Breaking News
At least one person is feared dead and a second has been seriously injured in a shooting incident at Broward Community College near Fort Lauderdale in Florida.

Witnesses said an argument broke out between a man and a woman as students were changing classes.

The man then allegedly pulled a gun out and shot the woman before turning the gun on himself.

It is the third such incident in a week.

Earlier, three people were shot dead at a law school in the town of Grundy in Virginia. And two were injured in a shooting at a school in New York.
