October 9, 2015 (Gephardt Daily) – As President Obama arrived in Roseburg, Oregon Friday to meet with the victims’ families in the October 1st massacres at Umpqua Community College, a pair of separate shootings on different college campuses led to the deaths of two more students.
At 1:20 a.m. Friday morning, a parking lot dispute turned deadly at Northern Arizona University when Steven Jones, 18, allegedly opened fire on four students, killing one identified as Colin Brough, and injuring three others.
The three injured students, Nicholas Piring, Nicholas Prato and Kyle Zientek, were taken to Flagstaff Medical Center after being shot multiple times and are currently in stable condition.
Jones was taken into custody and was officially charged with murder Friday afternoon.
Around 11:30 a.m., Friday morning, authorities in Houston, Texas were called out on a report of a shooting at a Texas Southern University owned apartment complex located on campus.
When officers arrived, they found one student, a freshman who attends the school had been killed and another student was injured in the shooting.
Eva Pickens, a spokeswoman for the University, said two suspects are in custody, but a third suspect is still at large.
Another college dealt with it’s own scare Friday afternoon as the school was placed on lockdown after police received a call from someone who thought he heard a gunshot.
One staff member and 20 pre-kindergarten students were on campus at Jefferson Community and Technical College in Louisville, Kentucky, when the incident occurred.
Dwight Mitchell , a spokesperson for Louisville Metro police, said in a press release that after a brief lockdown, nothing was found and no one was injured.
These shootings come just a week after nine people were killed at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, Oregon. The gunman in that incident took his own life.
In a press conference just after that incident, President Obama reiterated his belief that gun laws in the United States need to change in order for incidents like the one in Oregon to be prevented.
“Each time this happens I am going to bring this up. We can do something about it,” said Obama. “But we are going to have to change our laws. And this isn’t something I can do my myself.”
