UPDATE:

A student named Dylan Quick was taken into custody earlier today after going on a stabbing spree at Lone Star College, leaving at least 14 people wounded.

Though it is believed he acted alone, authorities are advising students and area residents to remain cautious in case there’s a second suspect.

From CBS:

Quick was reportedly tackled by students and taken into custody on the campus shortly after the incident took place. He has not officially been charged, according to the station.

Just last week, Quick was featured in a blog about how far he had come and “the battles he fought and won,” the station reported.

The blog said Quick was born deaf and received a cochlear implant at seven-years-old. The implant was visible as he was escorted into the Harris County Jail Tuesday afternoon.
