The shooting began when Brian Bachmann, a 41-year-old Brazos County constable, attempted to serve an eviction notice. College Station police officers responded to the off-campus house shortly after noon following reports of shots fired, and found Bachmann on the ground.
College Station officer Justin Oehlke was shot in the leg. He's listed in stable condition. Two other wounded officers were treated for non-life-threatening injuries and were released, the police spokesman said.
The unidentified female civilian underwent surgery Monday; her condition was not released.
According to KBTX anchor Steve Fullhart, Caffall's mother released a statement late Monday saying he had "been ill." "It breaks our hearts his illness led to this," the statement read.
Texas A&M issued an alert on its website just before 12:30 p.m. local time on Monday warning of an active shooter near Kyle Field, the campus football stadium.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, an A&M alumnus, said at an event in Florida that his "prayers are with any of those that have been injured."
