PUBLISHED 9:30 PM ET Feb. 13, 2023A gunman who opened fire at Michigan State University in East Lansing, killed three people and wounded five, setting off an hourslong manhunt as frightened students hid in classrooms and cars. The shooter eventually killed himself, police announced early Tuesday.
The mass shooting began around 8:30 p.m. Monday at an academic building and later moved to the nearby student union, a popular gathering spot for students to eat or study. As hundreds of officers scoured the East Lansing campus, about 90 miles northwest of Detroit, students hid where they could. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer noted the shooting came hours before the fifth anniversary of the Parkland, Florida, high school shooting that left 17 dead and on the heels of other mass shootings in Monterey Park, California, and Uvalde, Texas.
Whitmer said she spoke with President Joe Biden on Monday night, which White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed in a tweet Tuesday morning. Jean-Pierre wrote “We have children in Michigan who are living through their second school shooting in under a year and a half,” said Slotkin, who represents both Oxford and East Lansing. “If this is not a wake-up call to do something, I don't know what is.”
