Gunman on Campus; Stay inside your building, away from windows; Shooting incident at West Ambler Johnston Hall
(Excerpt) Read more at vtnews.vt.edu ...
Radford Hospital has a kick butt emergency department, but relatively poor speciality (and surgical) service back up. Roanoke Memorial is an excellent Level I trauma center with excellent surgical and specialty back up.
These shooting victims will get very good care.
I’m guessing the guy shot his girlfriend and roommate this morning at
AJ. He was able to make it out of AJ and then back across campus to
Norris, where I’ll bet he opened up on the engineering department as
classes started.
I’m guessing only one nut case.
Fox had a pic of Mr. Ronery look-alike being handcuffed.
Actually, they probably just want to keep a handle on what's getting reported.
Gunperson, not gunman.
Seems they have audio and video of the shooting, show law enforcement hiding behind trees, while gun shots can be heard. CNN.
Did you hear the woman on the scanner talking about the man in the black cape running around?!!!!!!
Um, Koreans can be Christians. Further, self-professed Christians sometimes lose their marbles, too.
University officials always try to minimize stuff like this. Same as the UofW shooting a couple weeks ago.
CNN showing some video made by a student outside Norris Hall...supposedly he is a reporter for the campus paper.
Jamal Abdarghoutti or some such.
Strange.
“Where else is a homicidal maniac, especially in the south, likely to find 30 or 40 thousand victims in one place with the assurance that few if any of them are armed?”
With a kid on campus, that worries the he!! out of me.
These feel-good, kumbya, "gun-free" zones are just game farms for the lawless. Had student been allowed to carry, this bastard or bastards would haven't gotten nearly as far.
It proves that if ONE is WILLING TO DIE, nothing can be done to stop the killing of innocents here in the United States or 'ANYWHERE' else in the world.
Yeah, the university made a big ka-doo last year about banning all firearms on campus, even in vehicles, except for security. The policy didn’t do a damn thing to stop this nutcase from doing his dirty work...
April is the cruelest month. Prayers for the students and their parents. I can’t imagine what the parents of students at the school must be going through right now. What a horrific day this turned out to be.
The closest stations are 30 miles away in Roanoke, VA Includes CBS, NBC and Fox. The ABC affiliate is in Lynchburg, another 50 miles....
Thanks! I forgot about Lewis Gale!
Dr. Charles W. Steger
FoxNews had better be carefull with the images they are showing. Showing pictures of victims before any parents are notified is horrible.
