(CNN) -- Police took a man into custody Monday after "multiple people" were shot near Texas A&M University, a police official said.

Several law enforcement officers were among the people shot, Rhonda Seaton of the College Station Police Department told CNN. She didn't have information on how many people were shot or their conditions.

She said a person identified as the gunman was in custody. The shooting happened about one block from campus, Seaton said.

The university had warned people to stay away from the intersection of Welborn Road and George Bush Drive as well as part of Fidelity Drive in College Station, Texas.

Maybe, if guns were not as easily available to lunatics, then this wouldn't happen as often.

Just sayin....

I can't speak to availability, but the amount of guns has no effect. We have tons of gun owners and this doesn't happen. I've never tried to purchase a gun here, so i dont know how hard it is to get one.

Another article reported that it may have started when someone was being evicted, so it may not be as random as it first seemed, but the police haven't confirmed this.
