One person has been killed and another injured in a shooting at a county courthouse in the United States, a Mississippi coroner has said.

Coroner Brian Switzer told the Sun Herald that one person died after Friday's shooting at the Harrison County Courthouse in Biloxi.

WLOX-TV reported that a security guard in uniform was wheeled out on a stretcher with what appeared to be a leg injury.

Officials did not release details on the people involved in the shooting or the condition of the injured person.

Mississippi Bureau of Investigation officers were on the scene.

The bureau investigates all shootings involving law enforcement officers.
