However, it is not clear whether the suspect has fired any shots. At least 20 law enforcement units responded to the scene. The incident came to light after a text message reporting an active threat was sent to students on campus and in the medical buildings nearby. Videos shared on social media sites show a massive number of law enforcement vehicles and the area temporarily cordoned off.
