Seattle pacific university shooting

Post by garoweboy »

Quick Facts:

At least six people shot at Seattle Pacific University.
At least one suspect in custody. Police initially said two.
School is about 10 min. from downtown Seattle with about 4,000 students.
This is the first Seattle school shooting since April 2007.
At least six people were shot Thursday afternoon at Seattle Pacific University in Seattle and police have at least one person in custody.

The shooting happened about 3:30 p.m. in Otto Miller Hall, 3rd Avenue West and West Nickerson Street. The campus was on lockdown and traffic around the school was blocked.

Police initially said there was a second suspect in custody, but later said there was only one. KIRO 7 reporter Gary Horcher also was told a second person was arrested.

Police said they were looking for a white man with a long-sleeved blue shirt with long vertical stripes. Police said he's armed with a handgun.

Medic units lined up multiple stretchers outside the school. The university posted online that "the campus is in lockdown due to a shooting at Otto Miller Hall." The hall has math and science classes.

A woman who answered the phone at the school's security office quickly disconnected, saying no one could talk. FBI agents also were responding.

About 4,000 students attend the Christian university about 10 minutes from downtown Seattle. This is the first Seattle school shooting since April 2, 2007 when Rebecca Griego was killed by her ex-boyfriend at the University of Washington's Gould Hall. In that case, the shooter then killed himself.



7 people injured so far :shock: The states have been raged by maniacs. Ilahay hanaga qabto. Amiin
