LeMoyne-Owen College President Johnnie Watson says 18 students were in the English classroom when the man barged in Thursday. Watson says the man — who had a handgun — ordered students to toss their purses and wallets on the floor. He then fled the campus. No shots were fired and no one was hurt. Police searched the campus and the surrounding neighborhood but made no immediate arrests. The campus was temporarily locked down and classes were canceled for the rest of the day. The school has about 800 students. Watson says the gunman was photographed by campus security cameras. Must have forgot to post up their 'Gun Free Zone' sign on the front door...

RedRocket1647545505 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 By 'at work', I didn't mean at your actual place of employment. More like, 'in action'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
