A tragic shooting at Florida State University on Thursday left at least one person dead and at least six others hospitalized, according to Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare. The incident occurred near the Student Union, prompting immediate lockdowns and a massive law enforcement response. Authorities have since confirmed that the threat has been “neutralized,” and a suspect is in custody. Witnesses described the gunman as wearing an orange T-shirt and khaki shorts, arriving in an orange Hummer before opening fire. The campus remains an active crime scene, particularly around the Student Union. Students are being reunited with families at the Donald L. Tucker Civic Center. (PC: Forrest Saunders)
