Law enforcement reacts to active shooter alert at US university
(MENAFN) Police responded to an active shooter alert at Villanova University in Pennsylvania on Thursday, prompting the evacuation of buildings and a lockdown on campus. SWAT teams were deployed, and students and nearby residents were instructed to shelter in place or barricade themselves indoors. Videos on social media showed panicked students fleeing or hiding in rooms.
Villanova President Peter Donohue later confirmed the report was a “cruel hoax,” stating there were no shooters, injuries, or firearms on campus. This marks the second swatting incident targeting a U.S. college in the same week, following a similar false alarm at Doane University in Nebraska on Tuesday.
