Mass shootings in the US are being tracked by CNN using data from the Gun Violence Archive, a non-profit group formed in 2013 to track gun-related violence. 

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police said on Monday (local time) said one person was injured in a shooting at Von Tobel Middle School in Las Vegas, US.
