Around 8:30 cst, a person dressed in all black, armed with an AK-47 entered Perry-Castaneda library. He went to the 6th floor and shot himself. His name was Colton, and he was a Mathematics major.
At 8:30, guess what I was doing.Go on, guess.I was in my room getting ready for class. I had just watched some youtube video and I was getting dressed, ready for my 9:00 class (actually, I just remembered, it's actually a 9:30 class!).The siren was loud, so I was like "EH", and just went to the elevator at 8:45 and then I found out I was locked inside.For 4 hours.WITH THE INTERNET.NO class today. No one was injured by bullets, only one person died, the "gunman", who just killed himself.With an ak47 might I add.
Why an ak47
He only shot himself? What a douche.
I heard about that, though they were kind of vague about which UT school. I figured it was austin though, because if it was here I would have noticed =p
Maybe he just didn't like the library in general?Because AK47s have a soul. [/clarkson]
Nice of him not to shoot anyone else. I wish more school shooters were like that.Stupid Cyrus, everybody knows that good snipers use Jarate to help their team.
@Cesque: Yeah, he had many opportunities too. Guy had class but it was kind of a clusterfuck too.
Yeah, I had just decided to skip my 930 class and turned my alarm off when I noticed my phone going off like crazy… I go out to the living room and on the TV there's a reporter right outside my dorm and a tank driving down my street. Text messages asking if I'm okay and warning me to stay away from the library. What a strange morning indeed.
Atleast that text message system works, right?
I'm not signed up for it but apparently it does!
What a loser, he failed to beat the high score.
