Three people were wounded, one critically, on Tuesday when gunfire erupted during an altercation between two people on a community college campus near Houston, police said, the latest in a series of shootings on U.S. college and school campuses.

Authorities said the two people involved in the argument were in hospital. A maintenance worker who had been standing nearby was shot in the leg, and a woman with a student ID was taken to a hospital with a medical issue that was not a gunshot wound, they said.

Acting Harris County Sheriff Armando Tello said the first call to police about the dispute at the college was made at 12:51 p.m. local time and sheriff's deputies arrived two minutes later.

The argument began as a verbal exchange and escalated to shooting, authorities said. A handgun was involved but no other information was given about the weapon.

Two people "of interest" in the Lone Star College shooting were detained for questioning, including one with a student identification.

An ambulance dispatcher said his company had transported three people to local hospitals. One of them was in critical condition and the other two were in "urgent" condition, he said.

The campus was searched and the all clear given, sheriff's officers said. Classes were expected to resume on Wednesday.
