Tragedy strikes Virginia Tech

The deadliest shooting rampage in U.S. history occured this morning on the campus of Virginia tech. 33 people were killed and several others were wounded. A young man opened fire in a dorm room then fled across campus and opened fire again in a classroom. Students were scared and confused because there was no public announcement about the incident. Students found out through email nearly two hours into the rampage, students that were in the building where the shooting occurred were jumping out of windows in order to save themselves. No one knew what was happening all they could hear were the sounds of people screaming and shots being fired.
