According to university officials, Ohio shooting left 1 dead and 2 wounded. However, the suspect for Ohio State shooting was already taken to the custody. While at the news conference, the OSU’s director of public safety Vernon Baisden said that Ohio State University shooting is really a tragic event. He sends his thoughts to all of the families.

The university’s emergency operators received a 911 call at about 3:30 a.m. Police arriving at the scene found one employee dead, while two others were taken to Ohio State Medical Center. One victim was in critical condition and the other in stable condition, according to reports.

Heavily armed campus officers searched buildings across campus, according to reports, and police said the person responsible was arrested.

The employees’ names were not released, nor was any information about whether they were working at the time of the shooting. None of the 55,000 students of the Columbus, Ohio, campus were injured.

Classes were resuming this morning. “We’re back to normal,” said Jim Lynch, the university’s director of media relations.

Lynch said he believed today was the first time the university issued a Buckeye Alert, which notified the campus of the shooting via text messages, e-mails and phone messages. Such campus alert systems became more common after a student gunman killed 32 people and himself at Virginia Tech in April 2007.
