Three Dead, Two Injured in Mass Shooting at the University of Virginia
November 20, 2022
On Nov. 13, around 10:30 p.m., a school shooting began at the University of Virginia. Three football players died, and two others were injured; one in good condition while the other is in a critical state. The shooting became one of almost 600 mass shootings in the United States this year.
The shooting was carried out on a bus returning from a class trip to Washington D.C. The university issued a shelter-in-place order after police responded, as the suspect was still at large. The order lasted nearly 12 hours, forcing many students to remain in classrooms and libraries overnight.
