A
shooting at Emory University in Atlanta on Aug. 8 has left a law
enforcement officer and assailant dead, according to authorities.
Police
said at around 5:30 p.m. ET that they were responding to reports of an active
shooter and asked residents to avoid the area.
“There
is no ongoing threat to the Emory campus or the surrounding neighborhood,” the
Atlanta Police Department said at 6:43 p.m.
ET on social media. “The incident involved a single shooter, who is now
deceased.”
According
to Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum, the officer was found “critically
injured” and taken to Grady Memorial Hospital. DeKalb County Police Chief Greg
Padrick later confirmed
at a press conference Friday evening that the officer had died.
Atlanta
Mayor Andre Dickens said at the press conference that the shooting occurred “on
the campus of Emory University,
just off site of the CDC
and next to the CVS pharmacy.”
While
the shooter’s identity and motive have not been confirmed, Atlanta Mayor Andre
Dickens said that he was a “white male.”
“He is
a known person that may have some interest in certain things that I can’t
reiterate right now with any confidence until the investigation is fully
conducted,” Dickens said.
He added that “in a short order,” more information would be available.
According
to Schierbaum, officers heard gunfire at a nearby CVS store and later found the
shooter, struck by gunfire, on the second floor of that building.
The Centers
for Disease Control campus,
which is in the same area as the university, received multiple rounds of
gunfire into its buildings, but Schierbaum said he was unaware of any
individuals being injured.
Georgia
Attorney General Chris Carr posted about the shooting on social media.
“We’re
horrified by the news out of Emory University and praying for the safety of the
entire campus community,” he said.
“We
stand ready to assist our law enforcement partners with whatever they may
need.”
This
was the latest in a string of active shooter incidents in recent weeks,
including one at Fort
Stewart in Georgia on Aug. 6.
Georgia
Gov. Brian Kemp praised first responders, noting both incidents.
“Twice
this week, deranged criminals have targeted innocent Georgians,” he said on social
media.
“Each
time, brave first responders rushed toward the danger to subdue the shooter and
save lives, reminding us of just how crucial they are.”
