(CNN) -- A lone gunman is dead after police said he killed at least 21 people Monday during shootings in a dorm and a classroom at Virginia Tech -- the deadliest school attack in U.S. history.
Government officials told The Associated Press that the death toll had grown to 31, including the gunman. CNN is working to confirm the report.
It was not clear if the gunman was killed by police or if he took his own life.
"Some victims were shot in a classroom," university police Chief Wendell Flinchum said of the shootings, which occurred two hours apart.
Police believe there was only one gunman, Flinchum said. (Watch the police chief explain where bodies were found )
Spokespersons for hospitals in Roanoke, Christiansburg, Blacksburg and Salem told CNN that they were treating 29 people from the shootings.
Sharon Honaker with Carilion New River Medical Center in Christiansburg said one of the four gunshot victims being treated there was in critical condition.
"Today the university was struck with a tragedy that we consider of monumental proportions," said university President Charles Steger. "The university is shocked and indeed horrified." (Map of Blacksburg)
The killings mark the deadliest school shooting in U.S. history, surpassing attacks at Columbine High School in 1999 and at the University of Texas in 1966.
One person was killed and others were wounded at multiple locations inside a dormitory about 7:15 a.m., Flinchum said. Two hours later, another shooting at Norris Hall, the engineering science and mechanics building, resulted in multiple casualties, the university reported. (Campus map)
The first reported shooting occurred at West Ambler Johnston Hall, a coed dormitory that houses 895 students. The dormitory, one of the largest residence halls on the 2,600-acre campus, is located near the drill field and stadium.
Amie Steele, editor-in-chief of the campus newspaper, said one of her reporters at the dormitory reported "mass chaos."
The reporter said there were "lots of students running around, going crazy, and the police officers were trying to settle everyone down and keep everything under control," according to Steele. (Watch police, ambulances hustle to the scene )
The university has scheduled a convocation for 2 p.m. ET Tuesday. In Washington, the House and Senate observed moments of silence for the victims and President Bush was reportedly "horrified" by news of the attacks.
"His thoughts and prayers are with them, and we are monitoring the situation," White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said.
美国之音消息 美国维吉尼亚州警方说，在维州一所大学校园发生的枪击中有至少22人丧生。
位于维州布莱克斯堡的维州科技大学的一名警官说，还有若干人受伤，其中一些人伤势严重。丧生者中包括一些在教室里被打死的学生。据报导，枪手本人也已经死亡。
枪击先后发生在西安布勒约翰逊学生宿舍和诺利斯学生宿舍。维州科技大学的校长说，整个大学对这起极为严重的枪击事件感到震惊。
多维社报道 之前的当地医院的消息称，至少有十七名该校的大学生正在医院接受紧急治疗，目前据信其中大部分已经死亡。
早前的消息说，事件发生在弗吉尼亚理工大学位于布拉克博格市的校园内。据警方称，当日上午校园内的两个地点发生枪击事件。第一起枪击发生在一学生公寓内，造成一死一伤。另外一起发生在工程学院的一栋大楼内，造成了十人以上的受伤。
校方发布的最新声明称，警方目前已经挡获了其中一名枪击嫌犯，并在校园内全力搜捕另外一名枪击者。
根据美联社报导，弗吉尼亚科技大学16日于学校网站中提出警告，一持枪男子在校园内游走；该枪击案可能发生在学校宿舍，学校提醒宿舍内的学生应留在房内、并远离窗户。
枪案发生时人在宿舍大楼内的19岁学生Jason Anthony Smith表示：“当时有很大的骚动，很难正确判断发生了什麽事。”
根据美国有线电视网（CNN）的现场画面，弗吉尼亚科大正飘着雪，时有阵风，多辆警车与武装警察在校园中搜寻待命，学生则疏离至安全地点。CNN也拍摄到枪案发生时从楼内传出的枪响。
根据报导，这起发生在Blacksburg的枪案除一人死亡外，已造成数人受伤。该枪案一共发生两次，第一次于学生宿舍，一人死亡一人受伤，第二次枪案发生在诺尼斯楼（Norris Hall），造成几起受伤案件；两次枪案共约七或八人名伤亡者。最新报导显示，共有17名学生在医院因枪伤或是逃亡时受伤接受治疗。
CNN说明，警方相信枪击犯只有一人。不过学校的书面声明指出，“警方已逮捕一名枪击犯，不过根据警方的办案模式，他们继续搜寻第二名持枪嫌犯。”
第一次枪案的西安伯贾斯顿楼住有895名学生，为该校最多住宿生大楼之一，西安伯贾斯顿楼在弗吉尼亚科大的训练场与体育馆旁。
该校大学报的主编Amie Steele在报导中形容宿舍枪案是个“大灾难”。
Amie Steele报导，许多学生发疯似的到处奔逃，警方试图让每个人冷静下来、理智地接受警方的掌控。
该校学生Matt Waldron表示，事发当时他正在听音乐，因此没听到枪声，不过随后警车声传来，他见到员警拿枪躲在树后。“他们叫我们离开那里，所以我们尽全力穿越训练场。”
Matt Waldron回忆所见到的两名学生：“那两个孩子我猜是太害怕了，他们从最高层楼的窗户往外跳，其中一男生摔断了他的脚踝，另一个女孩躺在地上，看起来不乐观。”
CNN报导，该校于上周五（4月13日）便因接到炸弹恐吓而停止三栋楼的课程。100,000平方呎的Torgersen Hall也在4月2日时因警方接到炸弹恐吓而疏散内部学生、教职员。
警方表示，凶手身份目前正在调查中，还不知道是否为学生。另伤亡人员里，部分为学生、部分为教职员。
该校校长除对伤亡者及家属表示哀痛之意、对警方迅速的应变表感激外，也指出学校将於明日（17日）上午8时恢复上课。
当局立即下令关闭拥有26000名学生的校园，此为该校一年内第二次关闭，前次的关闭原因也是因为枪案。
