A shooting has been reported at Rosemary Anderson School in Portland, Oregon.

The suspects in the shooting that took place this afternoon are said to have fled the scene. Five gunshots were heard in quick succession, according to The Oregonian.

The incident is not being treated as an "active shooter" and is believed to be gang-related.

One male student was reportedly shot in the back, with another female student shot in the chest. Another victim was also shot. The shooting victims have been taken to nearby Emanual Hospital where they are being treated for wounds.

The school is currently in lockdown and residents are advised to stay away from the area as police hunt the suspects.
