An active shooter alert has been issued at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado.

The USAFA sent out an alert Friday night that declared, ""AN ACTIVE SHOOTER HAS BEEN DECLARED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT. LOCKDOWN. LOCKDOWN. LOCKDOWN."

The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office said they are investigating a possible shooter situation.

Hours earlier, the Air Force Academy superintendent Lt. Gen. Jay Silveria condemned racist notes left on the message boards of five black cadets, saying, "If you can't treat someone with dignity and respect, get out."

Damn. Likely not your average active shooter. Hope they get him before he gets anyone else.

I am sure he will have similarly strong words if/when that turns out to be a hoax.

No matter what happens, I'm sure you'll always believe it was a hoax.

They're calling for medical to go to air force academy.

EMS/Fire just requested to move to an encrypted channel.

First only call said shooter Saigon Hall. The rest have been text messages. No damage or shell casings found so far at Air Force Academy.

They just asked everyone to stop moving and hold in their respective stairwells.

DAMN. That's just a couple miles down the road. And I'm finding out about it through TigerDroppings.

What a time to be alive.

Allegedly. Take it with a huge grain of salt.. there's no proof there are even active shooters at all.

And they all just moved to the encrypted channel. No more listening in. I'll keep an eye out on twitter.
