[Geee]

Fox News:

There was no official word on whether a shooting had taken place, but a Columbus Fire official told Fox News that eight people were transported to the hospital, with one in critical condition.

 

The school's newspaper, The Lantern, indicated in a tweet that someone was down.

 

"There's at least one body bag present in front of Koffolt Labs," read the tweet. "OSU police still advising to take shelter. Situation not under control."

 

A police officer on scene later told The Lantern that the shooter is believe to be inside the Lane Avenue Parking garage on campus.

Update:

The SWAT team has cleared the garage. Police are now refusing to say whether a second suspect is being sought.

 

Update: OSU’s Department of Public Safety issued a statement that has one curious omission:

 

 

12:21 p.m.
Ohio State University Police and local law enforcement continue to respond to a public safety incident on Ohio State’s campus. A suspect has been shot and reported deceased. Victim injuries include stab wounds, injury by motor vehicle and other injuries that are being evaluated. At the recommendation of law enforcement, campus alerts for shelter in place have been lifted. Campus remains open during the continued investigation, although classes have been canceled for the remainder of the day. Facts are still being verified. We will hold a media briefing as soon as we are able. The university will continue to share information through Buckeye Alert and emergency.osu.edu. Our top priority remains the safety and security of our campus community. Our thoughts and prayers are with those injured and their families.

Nov. 28 2016

The man behind Monday’s horrific attack at Ohio State University has been identified as Abdul Razak Ali Artan.

Ohio law enforcement officials confirmed to NBC News Monday afternoon that Artan — an 18-year-old freshman at OSU — was the man who plowed a car into a crowd of people on campus and subsequently attacked passers-by with a butcher’s knife.




Authorities had previously confirmed that the suspect was a Somali refugee, legally residing in Ohio.

 

Artan fled Somalia with his family in 2007 before landing in Pakistan.
