Oregon, Oct 2 (IBNS): Several people were feared dead in a shooting incident at Umpqua Community College in Oregon state of USA on Thursday, media reports said.

The gunman has been reportedly killed.

Kate Brown, Oregon Governor condemned the incident as she tweeted: "My thoughts are with the families and victims of today's tragedy."

"We arrived to find multiple patients in multiple classrooms. Law enforcement was on scene and had the shooter neutralized," Douglas County Fire Marshal Ray Shoufler told CNN.

The shooting appears to have started in one building before the gunman moved to the school's science building, the source told CNN.

People, who were killed or injured, in the mishap were found in at least two classrooms.

US Senator from the State of Oregon Jeff Merkley tweeted, "Horrific news from Umpqua Community College in Roseburg. My heart and prayers are with the victims and their families."
