This doesn't sound like a mass shooting situation

This doesn't sound like a mass shooting situation. It sounds more likely that the assailant and his victims knew each other. But we're waiting for details. For those of you not familiar with our state, CMU is in Mt. Pleasant, which is basically in the middle of the mitten, or lower peninsula. It's quite a ways north of Metro Detroit and probably about an hour north of the capital in Lansing. Aside from being a university town, Mt. Pleasant doesn't have much of a metropolitan area surrounding it. Let's pray that the suspect is apprehended quickly. We'll update as events warrant.

URGENT INFORMATION: There has been a report of a shooting on the campus of Central Michigan University. MPPD is assisting @cmupd with the situation. The shooter has not yet been apprehended. Please remain aware of your surroundings and call 911 to report suspicious activity
