At least 32 people are confirmed dead and at least another 21 are wounded after a shooting at Virginia Tech University this morning, federal law enforcement officials told FOX News.
Campus police said there was only one shooter and he is now dead. They are unsure if the shooter was a student and it was unclear if he was shot by police or took his own life. "The university was struck today with a tragedy of monumental proportions " Virginia Tech President Charles Steger said during a press conference shortly after noon. "
The university is shocked and horrified that this would befall our campus ...I cannot begin to convey my own personal sense of loss over this senselessness of such an incomprehensible and heinous act."
It was the deadliest campus shooting in U.S. history. Steger said school officials are notifying victims' next of kin, and state police and the FBI are still investigating the various crime scenes. They are still trying to identify all the victims. The university will set up counseling centers for students and faculty. source
Words can't describe the sadness I feel for the victims of todays shootings. My heart goes out to every person affected by this horrific event. I am in a utter state of shock and can't comprehend how anyone could do this....
Something has to be done to stop these shootings! I live in Montreal, Canada where the last shooting took place and i'm a university student.... it is not normal when students are afraid to go to class! Canada is making steps to increase our strong gun control legislation and now it is the time for the United States to do so! How long do things like this have to go on? GUNS KILL PEOPLE!
