TechAlert!

A short time ago, Texas Tech University received a report of an active shooter on campus near the Architecture Building. Texas Tech Police immediately responded, and law enforcement thoroughly investigated the situation. It was quickly determined that the report was a false alarm consistent with a series of “swatting” incidents that have targeted universities and schools across the country. Officers remain at the scene, and there is not believed to be a threat to campus.
