BRIDGEWATER, Va. -- Authorities said a gunman shot and killed two campus officers at a private college in Virginia, prompting a campus lockdown before the suspect was found and arrested.
Virginia State Police said the two campus officers responded to reports of a suspicious man and that he opened fire on them, fatally wounding both officers before fleeing. Authorities said 27-year-old Alexander Wyatt Campbell was arrested off campus and treated for a gunshot wound. It's not clear whether the shooting was self-inflicted or sustained in an exchange with officers.On Wednesday, police said Campbell, a former student at the school, was arraigned Wednesday on murder charges.
"This is a very hard time for Wyatt and his family and for the families that he has affected," she said through tears."It is not about gun control. It is not. ... It is about mental illness and how we have no control over that, the way society is right now. I can't help my son."Logan Bogert, a spokesperson for Bridgewater College, said that while Campbell was a student at the school, he was on the track and cross country teams. His last known address was in Ashburn.
