News on TV just broke in to say at least 21 people have been killed, and 21 more injured in two shootings on campus at Virginia Tech.

Obviously lots of details still coming in, but right now it sounds like there was a single shooting on campus this morning, and then a few hours later the gunman went across campus into a classroom and opened fire again.

The Virginia Tech police chief said at least 20 people were killed in twin shootings on the Blacksburg campus Monday morning.

“Some victims were shot in a classroom,” Chief Wendell Flinchum said, adding that the gunman was dead.

My wife and I were watching and we both gasped when we heard the reports, we couldn’t believe it. Just terrible.

Update 2:50PM: Not wanting to get into posting the increasing death toll numbers, but MSNBC has a few updates on the story:

The man did not appear to be shooting at random, NBC News’ Pete Williams reported, quoting federal law enforcement officials. He appeared to have specifically targeted the two locations, a co-ed dormitory and a classroom in an engineering building.

…

Some but not all of the dead were students. One student was killed in the dorm, and the others were killed in the classroom, said Virginia Tech Police Chief W.R. Flinchum.

Law enforcement officials said the gunman carried two weapons, a 9-mm handgun and a 22-caliber gun, Williams reported.
