University of Washington shooting

Few details as of yet, but two are reported killed.

Two people were shot and killed at Gould Hall at the University of Washington in Seattle this morning shortly after 9. The Seatttle Post-Intelligencer and The Seattle Times have sketchy stories. Seattle TV staitons are all over it, of course, including NorthWest Cable News.

UW police say the male and female victims were found in a fourth floor office of the building, which houses the architecture department, and that it might be a murder-suicide. One of the victims might have been a staff member.
