Harvard University issued shelter-in-place order after shooting

The recent shooting incident near Harvard University has caused quite a stir in Boston. Transit police are currently investigating the shooting that took place on a subway platform, leading to the school issuing a shelter-in-place order for students and staff. Passengers on part of the city’s subway system were temporarily rerouted to shuttle buses as authorities searched for the suspect.

According to Richard Sullivan, superintendent of the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority Transit Police Department, a man armed with a gun fired several rounds at a targeted individual on the southbound platform at the Harvard Square station. Fortunately, there is no evidence that the targeted person or anyone else was injured in the incident.

The police were alerted to the report of shots fired around 2:15 p.m., prompting a swift response. A message was sent to the Harvard community advising them to shelter in the nearest building until further notice as police conducted a search of the area around the station, which is in close proximity to the university’s main campus in Cambridge.

The situation caused tension and uncertainty among students and staff, with many seeking refuge in buildings until the all-clear was given. The message posted on Harvard’s website was later removed as the situation was brought under control.

The incident serves as a reminder of the need for vigilance and preparedness in the face of unexpected events. It also highlights the swift response and coordination of law enforcement agencies in ensuring the safety and security of the community. As the investigation continues, authorities are working diligently to apprehend the suspect and bring a sense of calm back to the Harvard University campus and the surrounding area.
