<p>Two students were wounded when a gun brought to a high school accidentally discharged, a Los Angeles Unified School District spokesman has said.</p>
<p>District spokesman Robert Alaniz&#8217;s account to KCBS-TV differed from information from local police who said three people were wounded at Gardena High School.</p>
<p>KTLA-TV&#8217;s news helicopter, meanwhile, showed footage of one youth in handcuffs on the campus.</p>
<p>Mr Alaniz said the gun was brought to school in a backpack and went off when the student dropped it.</p>
<p>Los Angeles Fire Department Captain Jamie Moore said two victims were taken to a hospital, one in serious condition and one in critical condition.</p>
<p>Numerous law enforcement agencies responded to the shooting at the campus near Gardena in the city of Los Angeles. Gardena police Lieutenant Steve Prendergast said a teacher called police at 10.41am (6.41pm GMT) on Tuesday. The investigation was being turned over to Los Angeles city and school district police.</p>
<p>A handful of frantic parents rushed to the school after hearing about the shooting on the news. They paced nervously as they waited behind police tapes for word from their children.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve never heard of anything like this before,&#8221; said Thomas Hill, whose 16-year-old and 18-year-old children attend the school. &#8220;You&#8217;re going to have confrontations between kids but never this.&#8221;</p>
<p>Armando Perez, whose 15-year-old son Richard, was in the school, said: &#8220;I just want to know what&#8217;s going on.&#8221;</p>
<p>A mother who was waiting to hear from her 14-year-old son Michael said the school has a reputation for gang violence. Lupe Contreras said she has been trying to get her son out of the school.</p>
