False Reports of Active Shooter at University of Pittsburgh

A false report of an active shooter at the University of Pittsburgh caused alarm and panic among students and faculty members. The alert was issued by the university’s emergency notification system, prompting a quick response from law enforcement officers.

Thankfully, the officers who responded to the locations of the alleged shooting found no evidence of any actual danger. After a thorough search of the areas, the locations were cleared and the university’s administration issued an “all clear” message to the community.

It has since been determined that the calls were unfounded and appear to be a hoax. An investigation is currently underway to identify the source of these hoax calls and bring them to justice.
