Three people were shot and killed last night at around 8:30 p.m. in the 10th Street parking garage at San Jose State University, including the alleged shooter. A weapon was recovered at the scene, and police are investigating the crime as a double murder-suicide. They believe the victims were all known to each other, and that the incident was not gang-related. The identities of the victims have not yet been released, and police are still determining whether any of the victims were students.
Officials are saying that last night was an isolated incident and that students, faculty, and the general public are not at risk. The garage, which closed last night after the shooting and partially reopened at Midnight, was open again this morning.
Students complained about not hearing about the shooting last night. Officials had decided not to send out an immediate text alert because the campus had been deemed safe, but the school did make an initial announcement over its speaker system, which some students said they didn't hear. A follow-up text message was sent a few hours later.
