    Holy crap. NPR was just running a story a few minutes ago about the last shootings there. Prayers sent.

    Thought a Tweet I just saw might had been four years old. Sad it's not.

    Hopefully he did not get inside a building. The way he was dressed (not really meant to blend in) hopefully means that this was an isolated dispute in the parking lot and not a person set to go on a killing rampage.

    Send text messages if you know anyone at Tech. Those should get through. I'm guessing cell phone towers are jammed with calls.

    Ugh. That's from a far corner of the lot across from Cassell Coliseum. An administrative building to the left, dorms and a dining area beyond that. Behind and very close to where this picture was taken is a very active student workout center. A couple of blocks further down the road is "the cage," the student parking lot where there are reports of another possible victim.
