Two people, including a campus police officer, were shot dead Thursday at Virginia Tech, where 33 people were killed in 2007 in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history, a university spokesman said.
Officials warned everyone to seek shelter while an armed suspect was at large on the campus.
The officer was shot during a traffic stop, Virginia Tech spokesman Mark Owczarski told NBC News.
"Witnesses reported to police the shooter fled on foot heading toward the Cage, a parking lot near Duck Pond Drive. At that parking lot, a second person was found. That person is also deceased, Owczarski said....
Besides the 2007 shooting, there was that young couple who was shot in a nearby park. I don't think they've ever solved that one (unlikely that it's related to this incident though). Here's a link to the Metzler/Childs murder: Metzler/Childs murders not a cold case
