AMHERST - A person armed with a gun was reportedly in a University of Massachusetts Amherst dormitory and people on campus were advised to shelter in place. That's according to a text alert sent to students and staff Thursday afternoon shortly before 6 p.m.
The alert said a "hostile, armed person" was in Pierpont Hall in the Southwest residence area and a handgun was shown but not fired. Another alert minutes later said there were reports of a second "involved party" and no known direction of travel for either person.
The suspect with a gun is a white male wearing a dark colored shirt and a gold chain, the alert said, while the second person was a white male with a gray sweatshirt. UMass Police are on scene and have secured the perimeter, the alert said. A later alert shortly after 6 p.m. said police were "interviewing suspects and continuing to investigate."

Will likely end up being absolutely nothing.

Let's hope. Still better to be safe than sorry.

Thank you for posting some of the story and not being a douche like the OP. When will that become a bannable offense?
