Mudy, it seems an Indian-origin person was killed:
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--><b>Indian-origin prof killed in US shooting </b>
Tuesday, April 17, 2007
11:13 IST

Washington: The death toll in Monday’s shootout in Virginia Tech University has risen to 33, including an Indian-origin professor G V Loganathan of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.

Loganathan was teaching in a class in the Norris Hall when the gunman went on rampage. According to news reports, his colleague Prof Raman Kumar confirmed Loganathan death. An Indian student is also missing after the killings.

A gunman opened fire in a university in Virginia state and then in a classroom building across campus two hours later on Monday, killing 33 people in the deadliest shooting rampage in US history. He then shot himself after spraying bullets on the students.

The gunman, said to be in the student age group, was not officially identified but media reports quoting law enforcement officials said he was an Asian American.

No motive was officially stated but some reports said he had grievance against a professor and others stated that he was trying to find his girl friend.

In the first incidents, two people were killed and questions are being asked as to why law enforcement officials and the University authorities did not take steps to evacuate the building or secure the classes.

The second incident - shooting in the classroom - came two and quarters hours later and it accounted for most of the casualties.

Addressing a press conference, Virginia Tech President Charles Steger said that they thought the shooting at dorm was a domestic dispute and authorities had no reason to believe that the second incident was going to occur. They went by the assumption that the gunman has fled the campus.

Steger said they sent e-mails to the students warning them of the incidents but with 11,000 people driving into the University in the morning, "It is difficult to get the world out to all."

Virginia Tech Police Chief Wendell Flinchum did not give any details, saying that the investigations were still on.

But law enforcement officials were quoted in media as saying that the gunman had apparently planned the carnage meticulously and had two weapons and couple of bullet clips.

Students said that the gunman did not say anything and did not seem to be targeting anyone in particular. He appeared to be shooting at random, a student told a television network.

The first shooting occurred at in a co-ed dormitory that houses 895 students. The dormitory is of the largest residence halls on the 2,600-acre campus, is located near the drill field and stadium.

Two hours later, the gunman sprayed bullets in a classroom, which accounted for most the killings. Steger described the shooting as "tragedy of monumental proportions and said the University was horrified.

This was the worst shooting in an American school since Dylan Klebold and Eric Hams killed 12 students and a teacher before killing themselves in Columbine High School in Colorado State.
