Shooting Standoff Ends at Univ. in Ohio
By M.R. KROPKO, Associated Press Writer
CLEVELAND - A man wearing camouflage and carrying a high-powered rifle opened fire inside a university business school Friday. Hospital officials said at least one person was killed and another wounded.
The standoff ended seven hours later, with police taking a suspect in custody.
"We believe he is the shooter or one of the shooters," said Police Chief Edward Lohn. He would not elaborate.
Lohn said about 70 people had been in the Peter B. Lewis Building and that most had been rescued. He would not discuss injuries, saying family members had not been notified.
Police sealed off the sprawling building at Case Western Reserve University after the shooting began at about 4 p.m. The gunman was believed to be inside at the time, along with an unknown number of terrified students and faculty who had locked themselves in rooms.
"We're all shaking and quite scared. One of the girls in our office is seven months pregnant

:bang: I thought this kind of stuff had come to an end.
BTW, the report says the shooting was at Case Western Reserve, not at Ohio University.
