He's fine, I saw him post in the OT thread.

The most prevalent story is that the guy went and killed his girlfriend because of a love triangle, and that after he killed her and shot the R.A. he went and waited across campus for the guy to get to his class (there was a 2 hour time difference) and then he went down the hall opening doors and firing into rooms indiscriminately with 2 9mm pistols.

I will pass a story from one of the guys in the rooms:

"Zach just got back and he told us his story. he can tell u the details better but he deserves to be recognized immediately. He was in norris hall and heard the gunshots comign from down the hall. while others hid in the class room zach got up and got a few others to help him baracade the door with desks. He could hear the gunman coming down the hall opening doors n firing into class rooms. Zach then saw his door handle turn and the gun man tried to get in but zach and the others slammed the door back shut and got on the ground holding the door shut with desks. zach then said he heard the the gunman reload and fired two shots directly through the door luckily didnt hit anybody. the gunman then turned and left walking down the hall to continue on"


National media is going to be here soon, I've heard Pelosi is going to make an appearance.

It is just unbelievable that this could happen here. I also have a feeling that things here are going to change a lot. And graduating is less than a month away.

You're right ... I guess I had it mixed up with some other campus shooting spree incident.

12, now it's 33...

I'd really like to know the reason why the shooter went around killing people, Columbine shooters were a bunch of outcasts, I wonder what the case is with this shooter

Read above... it had to do with his girlfriend. Closest thing we got, anyways. Gonna be hard to tell since the scrub is dead.

A friend at Tech set his Facebook status saying he is okay, one of our friends got shot, and don't try to call because it won't work. I did try calling some friends earlier but it's like what happened on 9/11, the phone lines are completely jammed up. This just makes me so sick.

Thanks Mike. I'm good. It's just been nuts all day though. I graduated last May but my girlfriend still goes there along with many of my other friends including MrPratt. My gf's roomie is freaking out since she has not been able to reach her ex bf and she's just letting her thoughts drive her insane since she's too afraid to call his parents.

It's a very sad day.

I just sent my friend an email to see if she's OK. If any of you other VT guys might know her, her name is Laura Agnich.

This POS has affected not only the victims' families lives but thousands of students across campus. Imagine trying to study for finals when you're best friend has just been shot dead.
