At least 6 injuries in a shooting incident at a university in Florida, USA... and Trump is suspended

Florida State University Police Chief Jason Trumbore announced that two people were killed following a shooting at the university on Thursday. Trumbore added that the two dead were not students at the university, and pointed out that 5 others were injured as a result of the incident and were taken to a hospital, as was the shooter.

Earlier, WCTV, which cooperates with Ofoq News, said that at least 4 people were injured in the incident, citing medical officials. A first responder who was at the scene confirmed the previously mentioned number.

“The center is receiving and caring for patients affected by the incident that occurred at Florida State University,” Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare Center said in a statement to Ofoq News. “At this time, details are still unfolding, and we do not have specific information to share yet.”

The suspected person in the incident was arrested, Ofek News learned earlier. A student at Florida State University, who was on campus at the time of the incident, described the situation as "very scary."

For his part, US President Donald Trump called the shooting "shameful", but added that he was unlikely to seek amendments to gun laws. “I'm a big advocate of the Second Amendment right to keep a gun, and I've protected it from the beginning,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office while signing unrelated executive orders.

He continued: "With regard to legislation, this has been going on for a long time. I have a commitment to protecting the Second Amendment. I ran on it, among many other things, and I will always protect it." During his first term, Trump indicated he would be open to expanding background checks on firearm purchasers, but he later walked back those comments after meeting with then-National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre at the White House.

In remarks during his campaign, Trump told supporters in October 2024 that the Second Amendment was "under siege," praising the National Rifle Association's support for it.
