Purdue shooting?

[lovemachine]

I must have missed it. Isn't it legal to carry on a college campus? It's just that you face expulsion when caught?

Possible shots fired at Purdue again tonight in the Village.

Somebody on Facebook is saying there is another shooting tonight, at Purdue Village?

Anybody confirm?

Heard reports. Turned on the scanner and heard someone can't control their 6 year old kid so they called the cops...

My son sent me a text from campus and said the Village, too, but I haven't heard from any other sources.

Yep, it's legal but it could still cost someone 1000's of dollars if caught.

Did you happen to notice the HuffPo add at the bottom of the HuffPo article?

What do you mean it would cost someone 1000's of dollars?

Forfeiture of tuition paid.

avboiler got it, I should have read further before posting

Am I the only person who thinks this timeline is fishy? The first officer arrived on scene less than 2 minutes after shots fired. I can believe that, there are cops everywhere on campus. We hear in the recording the officer yelling "get down, get down" and two minutes after that the room is evacuated, and there are officers lining the halls. Again, I can believe that, there are cops all over the place. My problem is with the ambulances... I am sure Purdue has an ambulance or two on stand by, but the closest hospitals are way more than 4 minutes away. How did so many get there so quickly?

Doesn't every fire station have an ambulance?

WLFD is less than 3 blocks from that building, ambulances are not all stored at hospitals.

ah, I misread the article, it said six police cars and multiple ambulances, I read it as six ambulances. two I could see, six would be extreme for the time frame.
