The Trump administration in a statement on Tuesday afternoon thanked local law enforcement for their heroism.

"Our prayers are with the victims, family members, and all those affected by today’s shooting at STEM School Highlands Ranch in Littleton, Colorado," said White House spokesman Judd Deere on Tuesday.



"Tragically, this community and those surrounding it know all too well these hateful and horrible acts of violence. The White House has been in communication with state and local officials, and the President has been briefed and continues to monitor the ongoing situation. We offer our full support to local law enforcement and first responders and thank them for their heroism," Deere added.

An 18-year-old man was killed and eight other students were injured in the shooting.

Two suspects, an adult man and a juvenile, were arrested at the scene. The two are thought to be students of the school.
