Take a quick shooting type event or confirmed shots fired. About the alleged threatening somebody. Look at the camera system to identify or Access Control if they know who the person is. Identify where they are on the campus and criminal investigation is under way. At the same time they will make sure the search and response. Umass Police Department supported by the amherst Police Department. They are going to just go around the campus make sure they dont have subjects are not threatening students. Campus before they lift the restriction and at the same time be conducting the investigation. Identify who the guy is. Facts and s. If he did threaten with a weapon. Trying to place that person in custody if possible. Dan, i have another question. Checking the entire campus to make sure its safe. As large as the campus is that could take some time. Can take some time. Er on the side of caution. The last thing you want to do we dont want to inconvenience people and let people out and still have a threat on the campus. They will go building by building. Block by block. This looks like from reports we have not a mass shooting event. This looks like a criminal event which the suspect has fled the scene. They want to be sure the criminal will not cause further harm to any of the student just err on the side of caution. They will take their time and make sure the students are safe. These are some the dorms we are looking at. These are towers. These are like hotel towers you see in the city. They house several hundred students and they will be working with the u. S. Mass Police Department. How does that work. State police. Umass police. They know this place like the back of their hand. This is umass facility. Primary jurisdiction they will be the with ups in charge and go and do the searches floor to floor an building by building. They may have other offices assist them. Those offices most likely will hold the perimeters. Umass knows the structures help them do head counts make sure everything is according to plan. Support will be on the outside outside of the school and majority of the umass police will be doing the inside. Command center as well with staff. Making sure they have they have done a good job they have alerted the students with activation system which [inaudible] threat and the danger and looks like great response from the students cooperating with the staff. Staying in place. Find this guy. He is off campus great. We want to make sure he is not on campus and does something stupid. Former superintendent and chief boston Police Department. We appreciate your insight. Check back with you shortly as we move along with our coverage. Night fall and that makes things more difficult for the police as they try to search the campus. But also it brings to mind the have been on the campus its a sea of people. 28,000 students crisscrossing faculty members as well and to see it so baron right now. Two individuals walking im assuming they are Law Enforcement. Otherwise this is a campus in lock down at the moment and you dont see anyone Walking Around in fear they may be harmed by what we are hearing are reports of a possible gunman on campus and perhaps someone else as well dough have caitlyn on the phone. She is a senior. A journalism student there and she has been we found her on twitter. Thanks so much for being with us. Thank you. Describe what you have seen and what you have heard thus far. I was in the fort part of campus. Im not directly by the dorm. But we received text alert then we had 3pa announcements just to say where we are until further notice. So thats where we are at right now. You are in your dorm right now . Yes. And you had posted some video on twitter dark and hard to see but describe for me what video you were taking on twitter earlier. Yes. That was basically just outside of my apartment. I was on the lawn campus apartment. Apartment dorm here, its very calm. There is not really anything going on in this part of campus. But i mean ive seen a Police Cruiser going on right now and actually we are just getting the sirens going off right now. This is the fourth time. I can see what they say. This is mark. Have you been in the hall itself . Im sorry. Could you repeat the question. There are sirens on going off again. I will repeat the question. You are a senior. Are you aware of peer pont hall have you been in the hall . They are saying its all clear right now. All clear. They are saying its all clear. Yeah. So that was our alert just now. How would you describe the alert system . Do you think its been effective . This system, i mean as far as what is in place its hard for me because im not exactly by the pierpont dorm but it was good. I would say at least notifying us. You can hear the announcement. You know what is going on. So i will read it to you. The twitter account says that shelter in place order has been please resume normal activities Additional Information will be provided by umass email. Fantastic news coming from the university at this hour. Shelter in place now lifted asking students an faculty to resume their normal activities. We are grateful you are safe. We appreciate your insight and wish you the best. Finish out your senior year. Thanks. Take care. Joining us a senior. For those kids and for the parents who have students there this is friends they know. This is incredible night as far as the finish here because there was tense moments there certainly for quite some time on that campus with the entire campus on lock down at one point. Wondering what was going to be the next move. Campus shelter in place order lifted. This is the kind of news we leak to report. No shots fired. As we heard from dan he gave credit to the Campus Police and they not only alerted students but for the way they handled the situation. He said they were put to the test and they successed. We are grateful to report tonight that lock down lifted. All clear. We start to see students move around on the campus of umass. Interesting because only 40 seconds after they put out a tweet to remain in place in shelter in place and to not go outside and if you were outside to go inside, they put out the shelter in place had been lifted resume normal activities. It will be interesting to see where the investigation heads. As i mentioned just read this a moment ago but this is a situation where we have to find out why in fact this was lifted and keeping close eye on that. Was there an individual arrested here. We dont know that yet. But we do know students are walking about. And thats a great sign from umass. We are going to continue to follow this story throughout the rest of the evening. A suspect who is in custody now and who the person was who started all this. Initially we her the suspect was a white male and may have possibly been a second person involved in all this as well. Also on social media police were describing this person who reportedly had a gun as a hostile suspect. You can imagine the fear for those students who were in peer pont hall and got the news saying there was an armed gunman or armed man armed person in their hall. You know they were just so afraid and tonight just to relieved to know that the all clear has been given. That students are allowed to move around and now we are just hope to go get more information from police very soon on that suspect. Emergency alert system at the colleges thee days remarkable. Unfortunate that it had to be put in to place. We understand why because of shootings that have taken place. Again no shots fired here at umass. Therefore the shelter in place has been lifted. Can assume at this point. Down the road but we know that it is safe to go about. Things are secure enough where obviously the student body can around. But it is something that the shelter in place system, this Emergency Alert system that you have children in college. If you have some planning to go to college it is a system they document on those tours. Tonight case in point where it works. And this will probably be used for other schools as example to show how the system works and so that other schools can learn from the way that Umass Amherst handled the situation. We didnt see a soul in our live video. Students were paying attention to that alert. They knew that three lock down was in place and they abided by it. Dan, we dont flow what the outcome is. We on do know its possible tiff one as far as student body. We dont know about any type of arrest or anything like that. You had mentioned when you were possible isolated incident. Someone umass is like a small city. Robbery. What happened is umass done a couple things they have identified the threat is no longer there. They either have the suspect in custody or they have evidence or witnesses that says the suspect is out of the area. Working to identify exactly what he did and as reported by the students that he pointed a gun at somebody. Working to identify the individual and bring him until to custody. But now they are clear and maybe they have an arrest. Maybe they just he left the campus. Students are safe and go about their routine. Talk about how much more difficult this would have been had this continued on during night fall. The longer it goes, the more the more you get reports that flow in that are false. Run down each lead. The quicker you can get to the bottom of it. Get the individuals involved. Description of a couple of suspects. Several people describing the same suspect. As far as people describing two different suspects. Get in interview the people. Verify it with cameras. References from other witnesses and then once you know what the information is with your investigation and make the decision to either keep the campus locked down or to open it up and move on. You have been following this with us watching our live video and watching our report of this situation. How would you describe the police work here . How would you describe the campus work and the students as well . Textbook. Kudos to everyone involved. Threat on campus. You put the student safety first. You dont take chances. You put your program in place and they have a lock down policy. System. They got on social media. As soon as they were able to get the situation cleared up they let the students know through Text Messages emails and social media are you safe. Message going out to the parents. Make sure they are in a safe place an know what is going on a lot of parents looking nervously at your coverage. Umass did a great job of managing the scene. It wasnt a mass shooting. Reported threat of armed person on campus. Very specific and clear in the language they chose in their alert. If it had been different you would have seen different language. They want to make sure letting people know what the real challenges are they are facing. Very specific in what they put out. Clear and hopefully had parents a little come forked by the fact it wasnt a San Bernardino issue. What he was doing on campus. The language that they used the two students we spoke with didnt hear a lot of panic in their voice. Absolutely. They have done great job training and drilling this. [inaudible] they have done a lot of drills. A lot of training exercises. Very professional. Put a special message out and that works. We found this out we used to try to hide this from students. [inaudible] you wouldnt want to cause concern. We had reported weapon at a school and we found if you just give everyone the information you have and let them know Law Enforcement is on site. Report of a gun at the school. Law enforcement on scene. No one hurt and we are conducting a search and students safe we will keep them safe. That message goes a lot better to the parents than not having information at all and students trying texting their parents saying we are lock down. You want people to know. I will say hearing those sirens go off and hearing the messages they were startling. In the sense they give you the picture right now. You have to go inside. You have to observe this lock down. It certainly got your attention and got the students attention right here. Absolutely. I think everyone in the United States is to the point they are paying attention. If you get alert. Shelter in place, talked to their kids what they would do in an emergency. When kids are in classes they look at where they would shelter in each one of the classes. Go about their daily life on campus. Unfortunately thats the way we have to think in this country these days. In other countries. It is a whole other part of going to college. The safety angle. There is a tremendous amount of resources poured in to that. Student body, teachers and everything else. Deal of it is safety on campus. Whether it be the blue lights you see within eye shot that you can go over if you have someone following you and able to alert authorities. One of the best things they can do is to do these drills. To not just talk about it. Not just have a plan in a book. But every once in a while test the system. Test the drill. Make the students aware staff aware. See what you can do better. There are things that went wrong here where someone couldnt get in to a location. They will do [inaudible] find out if there is anything they do better. They did an excellent job. We. See anyone but Law Enforcement and First Responders out and about. But thank you very much. Boston police. Now managing partner. Always appreciate your time. Thank you.
