“To the ROTC students that took down the shooter at SPU before more were injured. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. #prayforSPU”
From a spu twitter site. Not sure if the statement is true. But it was in the engineering building. And when I went to another school, some of the engineering classes were ROTC classes. (Think SEABEES).
I’m glad your son is fine.
I listened to almost an hour of reporting on this on the way home, including a statement by the Mayor (big Dim), Police Chief and Fire Chief.
There was only 1 shooter - he used a shotgun and also had a handgun of some sort. Witnesses said there were like 10-20 red shotgun shells on the floor. White male - black hair & hoody about 20(+/-) years old.
He entered the foyer of the building and started shooting. He shot 3 people, 1 20 y.o male died at the hospital. There’s a 20 y.o. or so female that was in critical condition and was in surgery about 1 hour ago. 2 others are at the hospital (only 1 of them was shot, not saying how the other was injured) - both in satisfactory condition.
2 others were injured in some way, but not taken to the hospital.
As I understand it, the big presence of SPD, Fire, Aid, etc. was because it was at a school at they didn’t know the situation. ATF and FBI were also there.
More in a few minutes - be right back, going to get something to drink.
