2. Just saw that.
One of the football coaches is my sister's nephew (by marriage). I used to babysit him. I also have a cousin who works there. Cannot even begin to imagine how terrified everyone on campus must be right now.

7. *Update*
Alert may have been cancelled. State officials not sure they need to enter campus. Might have been a person carrying something resembling a gun - unverified.

9. Live press conference now
Have not found the supposed gunman. No injuries. Alert still in effect. Report was made by three kids attending a summer camp at the University.
