A police officer has been rushed to the hospital after they were shot while responding to an active-shooter situation at Emory University Atlanta campus near the main campus of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, according to the Atlanta Police Department.
An alert from Emory University went out around 4 p.m. advising there was an "active shooter" at the CVS on campus to "RUN, HIDE, FIGHT. Avoid the area"
The CVS to which they are referring is located at Emory Point on Clifton Road.
Emory University and Emory University Hospital have been placed on lockdown.
According to Atlanta police, one officer and one civilian were taken to the hospital. Their conditions are unknown.
SKYFOX flew over the scene to find several police vehicles had been shot up and some leaking fluids. Dozens of fully-loaded police vehicles responded to the scene.

Man we need some common sense gun control. /s
Everyone maybe safe, nobody can afford to shop at cvs
Hmm...AK? Just about anything will puncture a radiator. Gas tanks, too.
“...after ‘they’ were shot.....”?
After *they* were shot? More than one police officer? I’m so sick of this pronoun nonsense.
And, what is a “fully loaded police vehicle”?
> A police officer has been rushed to the hospital after they were shot… <
I know it’s a minor side point. But what’s with the “they”? Was one officer shot, or was more than one shot?
It’s so idiotic. If the author chooses not to identify the gender of the officer, how about this:
A police officer has been rushed to the hospital after the officer was shot.
Thank god it wasn’t a fully loaded automatic police vehicle with extended clips.
Long before the current ‘gender’ nonsense, the ‘singular they’ was used routinely when the sex of a person was unknown.
Now everyone gets all wee-weed up when they see it.
Got shot up pretty good.
12 seconds in our timimg. 😂😂👍
Leaking wiper fluid?
Officer sent to Emory not Grady which hopefully is good news as Grady is a level one trauma center real close. Also picked up two shooters. One person under a sheet; hopefully a shooter
(My daughter in law is a Doc at Emory)…
What kind of “gun control” would you enact that would stop illegal gun trafficking?
They need to eliminate this with extreme prejudice. PERIOD.

I get wee-weed up when people capitalize black but not White.
