‘How many more have to die?’
That is the thought being echoed as there has been another college shooting in the US.
Sixteen days. It’s been sixteen days since the Parkland Shooting. And here we are again at Central Michigan University. #Michigan #GunControlNow

The shooting at #CentralMichiganUniversity is proof that people with domestic violence, animal abuse, or anger issues should not be allowed to obtain a gun license or gun itself and cops should be allowed to confiscate both if necessary. #GunControl #Michigan

Two people have been confirmed dead after a gunman opened fire in a “domestic dispute” in Central Michigan University.
The two victims, who were not students at the university, were fatally shot at a residence in the college, which houses male and female students.
The suspect has been identified as 19-year-old James Eric Davis Jr, however he is still at large.

Parents and others expected on campus on Friday to pick up students for spring break were told to stay away while as the suspect has not yet been found.
The Michigan governor said on Twitter: “The priority right now is the safety of those still on campus and I thank all first responders involved for their swift action.”
The shooting comes a little over two weeks after 17 students and educators were killed by a 19-year-old gunman with an assault-style rifle at a Florida high school.
A teacher also opened fire in a classroom earlier this week in Georgia.
