A police officer was shot and killed early this afternoon on Virginia Tech's
campus during a routine traffic stop, according to the university. A second
victim was found dead at another campus parking lot, and NBC News is
reporting that this second victim was the shooter. A gun was found near the
second victim.
Students were asked to stay indoors as hundreds of police officers searched
and secured campus buildings and public areas. Area K-12 schools were on
lockdown, but are now releasing students. The university lifted the lockdown
at 4:30 p.m.
"We're looking absolutely everywhere for the person who fits the description
," Mark Owczarski, Virginia Tech spokesman, said at a mid afternoon press
conference. Students are not in class today because exams were set for
tomorrow, he said. Those exams are now postponed. "It's a very tragic day."

Lerone Graham, a reporter for local newspaper the Roanoke Times reported via
Twitter that, "students scarce now around campus; sirens sounding
constantly." Reports of more gunshots on campus are unfounded, however, the
university says. | a*********e
