One dead in campus explosion - Officials believe incident was suicide
By James S. Tyree - Transcript Staff Writer
An apparent suicide bombing on the University of Oklahoma campus Saturday evening killed at least one person.
According to a statement from OU President David Boren, a second explosive device was found and detonated. Initial reports had that occurring about 9:15 p.m.
The blast happened shortly after 7:30 p.m. on the South Oval, across the street from the Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, where more than 80,000 people were watching the OU-Kansas State football game. One person who responded to the scene said she heard the blast from four miles away.
We are apparently dealing with an individual suicide which is under full investigation, Boren said in the statement. At no time was anyone in the stadium in danger. Law enforcement officers and bomb experts on site were activated in the area immediately.
Officials established a crime scene and quickly put police tape from Asp Avenue west to the western edge of the Van Vleet Oval, between Brooks Street and Lindsey Avenue.
Early Sunday, Norman police, OU police, FBI and other federal agents remained on the scene. Police were also searching an area near George Avenue, south of the OU Brandt Park Duck Pond, although it was unknown whether that was related to the campus blast. Some of the residents of the Parkview Apartments were being evacuated. On Saturday, Boren said he ordered a search of the garage area near the stadium along with lower levels outside the stadium.
The suicide happened in or near the George Lynn Cross botany/microbiology building the ovals east side.
Damage to the microbiology building or any other structure couldnt be seen from the distant perimeter.
Sgt. Gary Robinson of OUPD confirmed one death, but gave no further details on the person or whether anyone else was injured. He said detectives were unable to investigate the scene right away because other personnel needed time to thoroughly sweep the area for additional explosive devices.
One fatality is all we know right now, he said.
Student Keaton Fuchs of the cable television station TV4OU had a video camera at the stadiums highest level. He turned toward the South Oval right after the explosion and saw a small amount of gray smoke rising from the botany/microbiology building.
Passouts normally are given to people who want to leave at halftime and come back, but they were not issued Saturday. Fans never were permitted to go on or near the South Oval, and after the game, which OU won 43-21, pedestrians werent allowed to walk north on Asp Avenue beyond the stadiums southwest corner.
Six members of the Brothers Under Christ fraternity dressed in white T-shirts, each with a red spray-painted Superman S and white capes couldnt walk a few dozen feet beyond the barriers to retrieve their bicycles at the stadium.
They decided to walk a mile back home and get their bikes today.
We heard so many rumors about this in the stadium, said Preston White, a BUC sophomore from Tulsa majoring in chemical engineering. At first we thought it was thunder, then we heard propane and suicide bombing, just all sorts of rumors."
==========================
So glad your son is alright, and that there apparently weren't any other injuries. For whatever inane reason, they're repeating mention of the Brothers Under Christ. Are you familiar with the Parkview Apartments?
