The incident started at 8:43 a.m. local time, when police received calls of an armed man and shots fired at the Duncanville Fieldhouse, a massive sports complex that regularly contains hundreds of campers and staff during summer camp sessions.
"I was scared. Because I had just woke up ... and then somebody just came and started shooting," Chloe Bausta, a camper who was in the venue's dance studio, told local TV station"No children have been harmed," Duncanville Fieldhouse management said afterward. No police officers or staff were hurt, either.
"Upon hearing that gunshot, [camp counselors] then did what they were trained to do," Stogner said."They moved the kids to a safe area and began locking the doors."
