I'm hearing a TA was shot but this is NOT CONFIRMED.

Horrible! Why do crazy people think the only way to solve something is to go on a shooting spree. Hope everyone is ok.

 

[scottka]

And yes, I was assuming the pics were of LE as well.

Hearing the same thing

Waiting for the facts to come out, though it does sound like someone is in custody now. Remember back before the holidays, Ball State supposedly had a gunman on campus as well. IIRC, the only shot fired was a ND from one of the Muncie police officers, or a SWAT team member.

this is exactly why students should have the option to CC while on campus. Support bill 1018!

Last four or five times this has happened at an Indiana college there weren't even any shots actually fired. I'll wait until this evening when the news actually reports the facts instead of conjecture.

My son had just left that building a few minutes before the shooting, have heard from him and he and his room mate are back in their dorm

Guns are so easy to get.

That is good news. Glad he is safe.

Glad to hear that majority of classes are still proceeding as scheduled (ex. mine)

whas11 just posted it Shooting reported at Purdue University; suspect in custody | WHAS11.com Louisville

 

[BogWalker]

Just word of mouth so far. Nothing known, it might just be something trivial. We can hope...

My thoughts. Last four or five times this has happened it was absolutely nothing. Remember the "shooter" that was actually a guy with an umbrella?

Seems like this might be a real one, but the boy who cried wolf history we've had in the past on this stuff makes me skeptical.

Was in meeting at County Building. Have to go to Sheriff's Department now, will ask and report back.

 

[Bunnykid68]

I guess it is a good thing every one else is unarmed, would be a tragedy if someone were to protect themselves

 

[bwframe]

Dumbassed WTHR anchor keeps asking students how they feel as opposed to for facts.

Friend just showed me pics texted to her. Gunman appears to be white male, black pants, black boots and black coat. Handgun in left hand and appears to be a SBR AR-15 style weapon in other hand.

Or that's law enforcement responding
