CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Two people have died and two others have life-threatening injuries following a Tuesday afternoon shooting on the University of North Carolina at Charlotte campus, according to NBC affiliate WCNC.

Authorities said one person has been taken into custody following the incident, but police continued to sweep campus buildings at 6:45 p.m.

At least two other people were injured, but it was not clear if their injuries were the result of gunshot wounds.

The university's Office of Emergency Management said that shots were reported at about 5:50 p.m. near the Kennedy building on campus.

In the alert, students were told to "run, hide, fight."

"He's a white guy!"

Picture shows he's half white

"Well at least I was half right."

They're only paying attention to this one because it was on a college campus. Had that rap concert been held anywhere else, it would have been a two minute segment on the local news the following day.

The shooter was a registered Libertarian and identified himself as white apparently:

Also he doesn't look like a typical thug, looks like a normal kid. If he was tatted and saggy-drawered with dark skin, this would have been buried by morning.

Surprised the news hasn't reported that he had autism yet. Regardless of your stance on gun control, I think we can all probably agree that autistic people shouldn't have access to guns.

Edit: Nevermind, exactly one site has reported it so far.

No high score, no an hero.

Funny that I was wondering what would happen to Elliot Rodger if he went to jail instead of suicide.

Riley Howell was killed in a shooting at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte on April 30,

Student killed in UNC Charlotte attack hailed as a hero for fighting suspected shooter
Riley Howell, 21, and Ellis Parlier, 19, were the students shot dead Tuesday as four others were wounded. The police chief is calling Howell a hero.

By Elisha Fieldstadt and Doha Madani
One of the two students killed when a gunman opened fire at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte was hailed as a hero by authorities Wednesday for confronting the shooter and ultimately giving his life to save others.

Riley Howell, 21, and Ellis Parlier, 19, were the students shot dead Tuesday as four others were wounded during the last day of classes, according to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.

"What you may not hear is the first and foremost hero, as far as I’m concerned, and his name is Riley Howell," Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney said Wednesday.

Putney would not give details about what happened in the classroom Tuesday afternoon, citing a promise to Howell's father and a pending investigation, but did reveal that the 21-year-old "took the fight" to the alleged gunman and got him "off of his feet."

Howell followed the run, hide, fight method authorities have used to prepare citizens for active shooters, Putney said.

"Having no place to run and hide, he did the last," Putney said. "But for his work, the assailant might not have been disarmed. Unfortunately, he gave his life in the process, but his sacrifice saved lives."

Spoiler: Rest of article

Howell was an environmental studies major, Dr. Philip Dubois, the chancellor of UNC Charlotte, said.

Howell's family said in a statement that he was "truly a one-of-a-kind guy" who loved "Star Wars, birds, cars, snowboarding, going to the lake, Kentucky Hot Browns cooking from scratch with cast iron while listening to the Feel Good Classic Soul playlist, and his Lauren."

"He always was able to put others before himself and never hesitated to help anyone who needed it. He was friends with anyone and everyone — a big, muscular guy with a huge heart," the statement said.

Lauren Westmoreland, his girlfriend, wrote on Facebook, "I keep hoping and hoping I will wake up from this awful dream, but I know that I won’t."

Drew Pescaro, 19, Emily Houpt, 23, Sean DeHart, 20, and Rami Alramadhan, 20, were the students wounded, police said. Alramadhan is from Saudi Arabia and his father is traveling to the United States to be with him, Dubois said.

The student-run Niner Times newspaper tweeted that Pescaro is a sports writer at the publication.

All four are expected to survive, Dubois said, adding that three were still being treated and one has been released from the hospital.

"The only silver lining this morning is the four other students that were injured look like they're going to be fine," Dubois told former North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory on WBT-AM.

Dubois said that he planned to visit the hospital and also "wander around campus" and counseling centers set up there to comfort students.

Finals are canceled through Sunday, but commencement ceremonies scheduled for May 10 and 11 will go on as planned.

Dubois said that every student who was set to walk at graduation will walk regardless of whether they've completed all of their tests.

"And we hope that when we get to that day, we feel a lot better than we feel now," he said. "We will not be defined by this."

A vigil organized by students on UNC Charlotte's campus will be held 6 p.m. Wednesday, according to the school.

Officials told NBC affiliate WCNC that the suspected shooter, Trystan Andrew Terrell, 22, was a history major at UNCC but had dropped out this semester.

Investigators don't believe he knew the two people he killed, according to a police report.

Terrell was charged with two counts of murder, four counts of attempted murder, four counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, possession of a firearm on educational property, and discharging a firearm on educational property, police said.

That puts the final nail in this story, surely it will be buried by the end of the week. Brown beta killer stopped by heroic alpha blonde white devil. To their credit CNN has this story and his photo featured on top of their site. MSNBC and NYTimes are ignoring the story entirely. Washington Post has the story buried way down, and they show no photos of the heroic blonde at all. Fox News has the story buried a bit, but nice photos of him when you do find story.

In this video you can hear him say "I went into a classroom and I shot some guys." and gives an evil grin before the cop holds his arm farther up to make it painful.

Why do they always try to pass off spics and halfbreeds as white when they don't even look it. White people know what they look like, you're not going to trick us into thinking some random gobbo is one of our own.

Race is just a social construct, goy. But you should hate yourself for being white.

'cept that autism is like most other "isms"... It's so poorly-defined and over-applied these days that it can apply to everyone.

 

[Belligerent Monk]

Trystan Andrew Terrell is his name if you wanting to try to dig up info.

Trystan conjurs thoughts of a white dude.
Terrell conjurs visions of a nig nog.

They both scream incel.

This tumbler link allegedly the perps is spreading on twitter....

Why Am I Doing This?

I have been taking a statistics class this semester. I and many other students in my class brought forward complaints and concerns, and I got a meeting with the assistant chair of the math department....
