A North Carolina high school student was shot and killed on Wednesday by a fellow student, who was taken into custody hours after the incident, police said.

Student William Chavis Raynard Miller, Jr. was shot at Mount Tabor High School in Winston-Salem shortly after noon, Winston-Salem Police Chief Catrina Thompson told reporters.

Paramedics rushed Miller, whose age was not disclosed, to the hospital where he later died, Thompson said.

After a five-hour search, police said the suspect, a student whom they declined to identify, was taken into custody without incident.
