The school was put on Code Red lockdown after reports of the shooting arose at around 11:30am local time.

Washoe County School District Police Department reportedly confirmed one of their officers was involved in a shooting incident on Wednesday.

Washoe County School District said that one shot was fired and one person was "transported." It did not provide any ID information.

The school is to be "currently stable and secure with heavy police presence at the school," the Washoe County School District said on Twitter.

Two male students were fighting outside the school library, when one of them pulled a knife and stabbed the other, Hug freshman Robert Barragan, who witnessed the incident, told the Reno Gazette-Journal.

A school police officer shot the attacker in the shoulder, Barragan reportedly said.
