NAU Police Department reassured the public that this was not like the mass shooting that happened at Umpqua Community College.

A former co-worker at the business – which is now Canyon Fitness – said, “He was a very fun-loving human being and a phenomenal lacrosse player”. And he called Brough’s death “just a waste”. On April16, 2013, it was at Stillman College in Alabama, where an argument about a bet over a video game resulted in one student being shot twice and the other charged with attempted murder.
The dead student was an 18-year-old freshman from Houston, according to Pickens. He ran to his auto where his gun was being kept and opened fire.
As two people approached him, Jones says he shot both of them. Witnesses say the victims were about 10 feet away.
Jones told police that he used a flashlight affixed to the gun to illuminate the area before firing. The majority of NAU fraternity and sorority members live in the 574-bed dormitory, according to the university website.
