Reports are saying the two people shot are dead and they were not students at the University.

The police think the incident may be a domestic dispute. Shooter is 19 years old. (and looks about 14)

Another report says the shooter may have been taken the hospital Thursday night for a drug related problem.

This is sounding more and more like a private fight over something that occurred between the shooter and people he knew.

I'm glad the press is sorting through the facts and not implying it's another random school shooter.

Reports confirmed the kid shot his parents.

The story gets more bizarre every hour. He seemed fine and was joking with some people, with others he was described as fearful and paranoid about someone hurting him.

I believe we will discover the shooter either had a reaction to some bad drugs or has a physical (tumor) or mental illness problem.
