So we are hearing from my daughter that there is a shooting three blocks from where my daughter lives on the MIT campus. Shooting on Portland and Main where there was a parade.

Update: though the shooting was not on campus, it was an area where students hang out a lot, including my daughter.

This was the event that was going on at the time:

People are being warned to stay away from Portland and Main area. One victim, injuries not life threatening. Suspect still at large.

UPDATE from MIT:

By 10 PM MIT considers the emergency over. As far as I can tell the shooter wasn't caught, but show is over.

Sounds like a personal conflict? Not sure, but it's weird hearing about such events near your kid.

More as I find out...
