Thankfully, the alert was resolved quickly, and the university announced that there were no injuries from gunfire. However, the incident did lead to multiple injuries as students rushed to escape what they perceived to be imminent danger. This alarming situation raises questions about safety protocols and the impact of misinformation.
The good news is NO students have been shot
The relief that no students were harmed by gunfire is significant. Active shooter situations are a nightmare scenario for any community, and the fact that this one turned out to be a hoax is a small consolation. Nevertheless, it’s crucial to remember that the chaos caused by the alert resulted in injuries. Many students were injured while fleeing, highlighting the need for effective communication and crisis management in such situations.

Witnesses reported that students were injured as they ran in fear, demonstrating how quickly fear can escalate into chaos. This incident emphasizes the importance of accurately verifying information before spreading it, especially in situations involving public safety.
