A gunman killed a Virginia Tech police officer yesterday at a campus parking lot and then apparently shot himself to death nearby in a baffling attack that shook up the school nearly five years after it was the scene of the deadliest shooting rampage in modern U.S. history.
In the minutes after the 12:30 p.m. shooting, Virginia Tech officials sent a flurry of e-mail messages, texts and tweets urging students and employees to stay inside locked rooms and away from campus.
A witness reportedly saw a third party suspect approach Crouse, fire a weapon and then flee the scene, Dr. Gene Deisinger Deputy Chief Officer of Virginia Tech Police Department said in a press conference.
