LOS ANGELES — Two men were killed in an apparent murder-suicide shooting at the University of California, Los Angeles on Wednesday morning.
The shooting occurred at about 10 a.m. in a small office on the fourth floor of the Engineering IV building.
According to the Los Angeles times, It is believed that a professor was shot by a young man who may have been a student. The man then committed suicide.
Several sources have identified the victim as William S. Klug, an associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering.
A person in the building reportedly heard three gunshots, but did not see the shooter. A note was found near the bodies, but police have yet to determine the motive for the shootings.
The incident took place a day before annual National Gun Violence Awareness Day, a day where people seek to raise awareness about gun violence by wearing the color orange, which is a colour that often associated with gun safety.
