As multiple rounds of gunfire erupted near Florida State University’s student union minutes before noon on Thursday, hordes of students ran away from the campus trying to get to safety as the sound of emergency sirens grew louder.

Police said the alleged gunman is the son of a sheriff’s deputy, whose handgun he allegedly used during the shooting.

One of two people killed in an on-campus shooting at Florida State University was an employee of food service provider Aramark, the company said on Friday.
