Ugh....2 dead last I heard and shooter on loose.

Really terrible news and so bad for the VaTech community, which must feel cursed.

A university police officer is fatally shot during a routine traffic stop and a second person is found slain nearby, the school says. The gunman is still on the loose on the Blacksburg campus, where 32 people were killed in a 2007 shooting...

Hard to believe it's been 4.5 years since the massacre. Seems like yesterday, especially now.

Virginia Tech Police, in conjunction with other law enforcement agencies, have determined that there is no longer an active threat or a need to secure in place. Resume normal activities.

Interpretation: 2nd victim may have been shooter, because a) gun found near that person's body, and b) above decision to lift threat warnings.
