A shooting took place Thursday at Umpqua Community College in Oregon where witnesses said the gunman specifically targeted Christians.

Fox News reports that the shooter, Christopher Harper Mercer, killed at least nine people and wounded at least seven, although some sources believe the death toll could be as high as 13.

The shooting took place in the small town of Roseburg, Oregon where witnesses said Mercer shot victims in a number of classrooms.

One student, Kortney Moore, said her Writing 115 teacher was shot in the head. The New York Post reports that another witness said the shooter began asking people about their faith.

“‘Are you a Christian?’ he would ask them, and if you’re a Christian, stand up. And they would stand up and he said, ‘Good, because you’re a Christian, you are going to see God in just about one second.’ And then he shot and killed them,” said Stacy Boylan, whose daughter was wounded in the shooting.
