At least 31 people were dead and 20 more injured in shootings Monday morning inside a dormitory and a classroom at Virginia Tech University in Blacksburg, Va. According to a witness, an unidentified gunman shot two female students inWest Ambler Johnston Hall around 7 a.m. before running across campus into Norris Hall where he shot additional victims before being killed by police two hours later.
Police have not released the shooter’s name or any other information about the attacker but witnesses describe the gunman as a college-aged Asian man. FBI spokesman Richard Kolko in the District of Columbia told the Associated Press that there was no evidence the attack was terrorist-related, “but all avenues will be explored.”
