A shooting on the campus of the University of Virginia late Sunday left three people dead and two wounded, university police said in a tweet, adding that the suspect was still at large and “armed and dangerous”.
The university police identified a student, Christopher Darnell Jones as the suspect, and said multiple agencies were engaged in an active search.
Jones was described as wearing a “burgundy jacket, blue jeans and red shoes”, and may have been driving a black SUV, according to the authorities.
An email sent to the student body by the university’s vice president recommended that all students seek safety and follow shelter-in-place commands as the situation remained active.– Reuters
