(CNN) -- An armed standoff at a high school in Bailey, Colorado, ended after three hours Wednesday with a hostage and the gunman dead.
The gunman walked into the school and took hostages in a classroom, where he later fatally shot a female student and turned the gun on himself as a SWAT team stormed inside, authorities said.
Local media and the Associated Press identified the Platte Canyon High School student as 16-year-old Emily Keyes, citing co-workers, friends and classmates. She was flown to St. Anthony Central Hospital in Denver, where she died at 4:32 p.m. (6:32 p.m. ET), said hospital spokeswoman Bev Lilly.
Initially, the gunman took six female students hostage, then released four of them one at a time, Wegener said. He fired one shot as he entered classroom 206; authorities were able to speak to him through the door.
