A shooting at a community college in Oregon has left at least 15 people dead and more than 20 wounded, according to local news reports.
The shooting took place at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg on Thursday, CNN reported citing Oregon State Policy.
Roseburg is about 290km south of Portland.
The local fire district advised people via Twitter to stay away from the college.
“We responded to a report of a shooting at the local community college and it’s a developing situation,” Officer Dwes Hutson, of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, said.
CNN, citing a county official, said the shooter had been detained. It said at least one woman was shot in the chest.
The college was immediately placed on lockdown.
Umpqua Community College has about 3,000 students.
That place is fucked up atleast in Kenya utapigwa ngeta and you are done huko every other week people are being shot in Movie theatres, Recruitment offices, Schools, Colleges, News Presenters live on air the list is endless. The probability of getting shot and stabbed must be higher in a city like Chicago or L.A than in Kayole Kenya
very skewed if you ask me when cops kill black men in the U.S they use a long phrase i.e. “use of excessive force” in Kenya its referred to as “Extra-judicial killings” they even send a U.N rapporteur to investigate
A warning message from the shooter who opened fire at an Oregon college allegedly appeared on an internet forum last night.
The message which was posted anonymously on bulletin board 4chan read: ‘Some of you guys are alright. Don’t go to school tomorrow if you are in the northwest.’
The message continues ‘happening thread will be posted tomorrow morning. so long space robots.’
Less than 24 hours later a shooter opened fire at Umpqua Community Colleg
that is normal no big deal . you just walking to a gun supermarket and buy a gun . in the 80 to late 90 s the us government supplied blacks with guns so that they kill each other . they did not for see white people storming public places and shooting people for fun
This coming a few weeks after they detained an innocent african muslim boy for bringing a clock he made to school just because it looked like the time bombs we see in movies, that’s what you get for doing stupid things.
Ladies and gentlemen, meet young master Chris Harper Mercer.
This is part of what he had to say as part of his reasoning when that guy shot the news reporter and cameraman on live TV a couple of weeks back, " … I have noticed that so many people like him are all alone and unknown, yet when they spill a little blood, the whole world knows who they are. A man who was known by no one, is now known by everyone. His face splashed across every screen, his name across the lips of every person on the planet, all in the course of one day. Seems the more people you kill, the more your’re in the limelight."
Attention-seeking bastard! Couldn’t just die by his lonesome. Had to go out in “a blaze of glory”
Recents gun laws that have been passed are real scarey. Anyone can walk into a gun store, walmart, gun show fair and buy an assault rifle and load it with ammo, drive with it in his vehicle to a church, bar, club, park without a carry permit. All legal. For a pistol one has to go thru a vigorous background check and a 21 day waiting period.
