UNC's Chapel Hill campus was on lockdown for over three hours Monday after police received reports of a shooting at a facility near the heart of campus.
One faculty member is dead after students and staff at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill were placed on lockdown for several hours on Monday after reports of a shooting.
Details about what prompted the lockdown were unclear until a press briefing Monday evening, during which UNC Police Chief Brian James confirmed that one person—an unnamed faculty member—was shot and killed in the incident. According to James, no other injuries were reported, and additional information about the deceased individual is not being released at this time.
"Based on witness information at the scene, UNC Police were able to identify a suspect, and after a search of the surrounding area, the suspect was taken into custody at 2:31 p.m.," James said.
