Campus Shooting: UAHuntsville On Lockdown; Four People Reportedly Shot at UAHuntsville's Shelby Center - WHNT
HUNTSVILLE, AL - Three people were killed today at UAHuntsville, and three others were wounded in a shooting that happened just before 4pm. The shooting happened inside the Shelby Center.

Of the three people rushed to Huntsville Hospital, two are in critical condition and one is stabilized, according to Huntsville Hospital Spokesperson Burr Ingram.

Multiple sources confirm the shooting happened during a UAHuntsville Biology Department faculty meeting. We have learned the suspect, a woman, was denied tenure this morning and then went to the faculty meeting and allegedly opened fire.

The suspect is in custody.

Several students left the Shelby Center building around 4:30pm, and looked very shaken up. Other buildings that had been placed in lockdown are now also clear. Police have wrapped the Shelby Center with crime scene tape.

After what has happened at other campuses, I am frightened of what could happen at mine. Actually, there was a shooting at a nearby Penske truck rental a few blocks from my campus two weeks ago, the school sent alerts to everyone and I heard "campus alert" and "shooting" and my blood pressure rose for a few minutes before it was read that it was off campus. Last year, we had an escaped convict http://www.buckeyeplanet.com/forum/horseshoes-hand-grenades/613558-chris-little-houdini-gay.html on our campus. The third largest in GA, with 20,000+ students, I don't know if the dude a few rows back in my Marketing 3100 class is going to go berserker. Shit is crazy.

Victims names have been released. Dr. G.K. Podila, Dr. Adriel Johnson, and Dr. Maria Ragland Navis died at the scene. Dr. Joseph Leahy is in critical condition. Dr. Luis Rogelio Cruz Vera and Stephanie Monticciolo are in stable condition.

I was with Dr. Johnson two hours before he died. I'll just say that this is a really [censored]ed up situation.
No way dude thats really scary, to know that if you stayed two more hours you might be dead. Dang.

The University of Alabama biology professor accused of slaying three of her colleagues fatally shot her brother in an apparent accident in Massachusetts more than two decades ago, a local police chief said.

Braintree Police Chief Paul Frazier confirmed the 1986 shooting in his town and slated a news conference this afternoon to discuss the incident.

The Globe reported at the time that Amy Bishop had shot her 18-year-old brother, Seth M. Bishop, an accomplished violinist who had won a number of science awards.

John Polio, chief of police at the time, said Amy Bishop, who was 20 at the time, had asked her mother, Judith, in the presence of her brother how to unload a round from the chamber of a 12-gauge shotgun.

Polio told the Globe that while Amy Bishop was handling the weapon, it fired, wounding Seth Bishop in the abdomen. He was pronounced dead at a hospital 46 minutes after the Dec. 6, 1986 shooting.
