FAU Boca Campus On Lockdown!

As many of you may know I go to FAU (Florida Atlantic University) down in here in Boca. Now, if you're not from down here you don't know, but Boca is one of the richest and safest cities in the state of Florida. Welp, not today! Early this morning we had a shooting in the student apartments and the school is now on lockdown. Now, don't get me wrong, this wasn't a Va. Tech or Northern Illinois situation, it was a 'damn them niggas wylin' out' situation where one person got shot and I'm almost positive it had something to do with GTA4 lol. Anyway, If you go to fau.edu here's a piece of what you'll find:

At 1:42 a.m. FAU police activated the newly installed siren and PA system, alerting the campus community that there was an armed suspect on campus and that all campus residents and visitors should seek shelter immediately. Messages were posted on the homepage, throughout the website and a university wide e-mail was sent out asking those on campus to seek shelter and those off campus to remain off campus. The new reverse 911 system was also utilized. In addition, notices were posted in the residence halls regarding the situation.

At this time FAU and Boca Raton police are searching for an unidentified male responsible for discharging a firearm on campus. It is believed that this is an isolated incident. No one was seriously injured during the incident, though a non student received minor injuries.

More info if/when I get it.
