Thread: Police situation at rising sun. What is going on??

After waking up from my afternoon nap and feeling especially sharp mentally, I was going to be heading to the school to get some studying done. When I walked out of my door in the Rising sun apartment building, I saw a police truck in front of the solutions building and several professors standing in the street. The professors yelled at me to go back into my apartment and lock the door. Does anyone know what is going on????

There seems to be a hostage situation on the 2nd floor involving a gun. So it's best for you to stay inside. I don't know the whole details, just what was relayed to me from people watching.


So stay inside and be safe!

I wish the school sent a mass email warning other students in the same situation. They really dropped the ball on this one.

I also want to add, that I hope people don't think AUC is all bad or a crappy environment. It's still a good school, I've been here for over a year, and this is the first time anything close to like this has happened. The worse before this is probably a cheating fiasco, 1 DD incident, or a stolen ipod.

you prolly know whats going on now from other sources, but just in case, there is apparently a hostage situation on the 2nd floor i think.

i live on the third and was also asleep, but awoke to go to campus...i saw two professors on the second floor and had no clue anything dangerous was going on...i left for campus and have been stuck here ever since.

Thanks for the update. I am on the third floor and I can only see people standing on the street from my window. I will post if I hear any shots fired. I will pray for the safety of the victim or victims involved.

Can not agree more with the need of a mass email getting sent out . . .nevermind theres the emal . . .thanks

Just a reminder, please respect confidentiality and the Terms of Service.

AUC's VMD page must be appealing as all hell to prospective students. I mean crack pipe lost, BB's robbed, apartment broken into, and now this......in the words of Dr B, "I love this school..."

wow, i hope students are not involved and everybody is safe.

Just so everyone knows, a mass email HAS been sent. I just received it. Here's a copy for those who may not have gotten it yet...

Dear AUC Students, Faculty and Staff,

An emergent situation has arisen at Rising Sun Apartments involving a domestic dispute, a gun, and an AUC student. The police are on-site and will hopefully be able to defuse the situation soon.

However we recommend that anyone who lives there should stay off-site until further notice. Anyone currently in their Rising Sun Apartment should stay inside with their door locked until further notice.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

AUC Administration

Glad to see they finally sent an e-mail out
