LAKE WORTH, Florida (CNN) -- A middle school teacher in Lake Worth was shot in the face and killed Friday by a seventh grade student.

A school board spokesman told CNN that the teacher, Barry Grunow, a language arts teacher, was shot by a male student with a handgun.

The student fled, but was caught on school grounds.

The shooting took place inside a classroom at Lake Worth Middle School. There were no other injuries.

Lake Worth Police told CNN a suspect is in custody but could not provide any other details.

The school spokesman, Nat Harrington, tells CNN that the shooting took place at dismissal time on the last day of school. "It's a very sad day", he said.

Lake Worth is south of West Palm Beach.
