UCLA Campus On Lockdown After 2 Shot Dead On Campus – Live Feed
Update: Police said there were two shooting victims on UCLA’s campus Wednesday but did not specify if the victims had been killed or injured.
As Reuters reports, at least two people were shot at the University of California, Los Angeles on Wednesday, police and campus officials said, drawing a phalanx of police cruisers to the scene and prompting officials to lock down the campus.
“Police are investigating a shooting in Engineering IV. Police are on the scene and report that there are two victims,” UCLA’s office of media relations said in an online posting. “The campus remains on lockdown.”
NBC News reported two people were killed, citing unidentified law enforcement sources.
“Right now the police are at the scene and the campus is on lockdown,” said an office manager in the university’s media relations division.
The university has more than 43,000 enrolled students, according to its website.
“Police yelling at everyone in Boelter to evacuate immediately,” bioengineering student Bahjat Alirani posted on Twitter. “I was in Boelter and I just see police spread around in the building yelling at everyone to run.”

At least two people were killed during a shooting on UCLA campus today in yet another victim disarmament gun free zone.
“A UCLA police spokesperson said officers responded to an engineering lab and asked students to go to a secure location after the campus-wide alert system issued a notification,” reports NBC News.
At time of press, the gunman is still on the loose and has not been apprehended.
According to California state law, gun ownership is strictly regulated on the campus of UCLA.
Under Penal Code 626.9 PC, known as California’s Gun-Free School Zone Act, which was enacted in 1995, students are prohibited from carrying a gun within 1,000 feet of school grounds.
UCLA’s own campus policy also, “Prohibits the transportation and possession of firearms and other dangerous weapons on the grounds of UCLA campus, off-campus buildings owned or operated by the University, areas adjacent to University Property or to activities of or programs conducted by the University, whether on or off University Property.”
In October last year, California Gov. Jerry Brown also signed into law SB707, which banned students from carrying concealed weapons on school grounds and college campuses.
Of course, criminals don’t tend to obey laws, so the only impact of such measures is to disarm potential victims.
