The man fired a number of rounds but no one else is reported injured, reports say. A second shooter is being sought on the Austin, Texas, campus where tower sniper Charles Whitman killed 14 in 1966.
Reporting from Atlanta —
A man armed with an automatic weapon reportedly shot himself to death after firing off a number of rounds Tuesday morning at a library on the University of Texas at Austin campus, the scene of one of the earliest and most notorious campus shootings in U.S. history, according to the university and local media reports.

Though no injuries were reported, a second shooter is being sought by authorities.

On its website, the university reported at 9:43 a.m. CDT that "a suspected shooter in PCL Library is dead," a reference to the Perry-Castaneda Library, the main library on the sprawling campus. "Law enforcement are searching for a second suspect. If you are off campus, STAY AWAY. If you are on campus, lock doors, do not leave your building."

Anyone here old enough to remember the McDonald's or Luby's shootings?There are some real twisted fools out there.

Some people are so fucked up

good thing this isn't like the VT situation where others were killed.

Damn, bell-tower shooting sprees? That's old school. Good to see no one else hurt (unless something happens with this other shooter). Crazy people in this world.

I guess he could not handle the upset vs ucla. nah all joking aside glad no one else got hurt and as always its a sad day when this sick shit happens.

my mom wouldnt go to a lubys cause of that

the guy didnt shoot at anyone .. just fired up in the air and killed himself (from what was last reported here in Austin).. so I will accept what happened.. that ended up a good thing and a Win for everyone..

He's a hero and I will celebrate and take a shot tonight in that guys name for killing 1 less psycho out there before he hurt others.

Author of More Guns Less Crime and Second Amendment advocate John Lott was scheduled to speak on campus that evening.Coincidence?
