In a continuation of the soaring violent crime rates (which the democratic party has spent the last few years vehemently denying for political reasons) shots rang out this morning at the 100th homecoming celebrations of Tuskegee University.
After the gunfire subsided and emergency responders were able to get to the scene, 1 person had been killed and another 16 more injured. Several people captured video during the incident during which an insane amount of gunfire can be heard as people scrambled for cover.

The shooting occurred early Sunday morning according to an Associated Press report, during the homecoming weekend at Tuskegee University in Alabama. Strangely, only one person was taken into custody and will face federal firearms charges — but no arrests were made directly related to the shooting.
The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency said Jaquez Myrick, 25, of Montgomery, was taken into custody while leaving the scene of the campus shooting and had been found with a handgun with a machine gun conversion device. The agency said in a statement that Myrick faces a federal charge of possession of a machine gun. It did not accuse him of using the gun in the shooting or provide additional details.
Twelve people were wounded by gunfire, and four others sustained injuries not related to the gunshots, the state agency said. Several were being treated at East Alabama Medical Center in Opelika and Baptist South Hospital in Montgomery, the university said in a statement. Their conditions were not immediately released.
The FBI joined the investigation and said it was seeking tips from the public, as well as any video witnesses might have. It set up a site online for people to upload video. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives also was involved in the investigation, a local prosecutor said.
Tuskegee University canceled classes Monday and said grief counselors will be available in the university’s chapel to help students.

According to an ABC News report, no one was arrested directly related to the shooting itself. Amazingly, this seems to be the case. I have searched for updates, and it does not seem as though police were able to make any arrests related to the shooting. Considering the volume of gunfire, and the number of weapons that could clearly be heard in the videos, I find it odd that no one was able to give the police credible leads to follow leading to an arrest.

According to a Fox News report, the shooting occurred at 1:40 in the morning, and Alabama Law Enforcement Agency Special Agents were immediately notified and responded to the University campus.
Twelve people were wounded by gunfire, and four others sustained injuries that weren’t related to the shooting, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency said in an update Sunday afternoon. Some of the injured included university students.
Tuskegee was celebrating its 100th homecoming this weekend, per the university’s website.
In a later statement, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) said its special agents launched an investigation into the shooting at the request of the Macon County Sheriff’s Office.
“At approximately 1:40 a.m., Special Agents received notification of multiple individuals shot on the campus of Tuskegee University in Tuskegee, located within Macon County,” the statement said. “Multiple individuals have been transported to area hospitals for treatment and one individual has been confirmed deceased. Special Agents are still in the process of gathering and examining information relative to the sequence of events which ultimately led to the shooting.”
“The scene has now been secured by several law enforcement agencies,” it added. “At this time, no arrests have been made. Nothing further is available as the investigation is ongoing.”
As has been pointed out on multiple social media posts, the mainstream national media has barely touched this story. Again, considering the level of gunfire I heard in those videos, this was not just some small incident with a single shooter — this was a large scale firefight on a college campus during a large homecoming event. As of this writing, there have been no arrests made, except for the single firearm possession charge.
