Pennsylvania State Police are conducting an investigation following the shooting deaths of two individuals on Penn State Beaver’s campus in western Pennsylvania. In what police are calling a case of domestic violence, a male allegedly shot a female Penn State employee before turning the gun on himself on the afternoon of Dec. 13.
“Our entire Penn State community is profoundly saddened by the tragedy at the Beaver campus. Our deepest sympathies go to the victim’s family and friends during this very difficult time, and our thoughts and prayers are with the Beaver community,” said Penn State President Eric J. Barron. “The security and safety of our faculty, staff and students is our top concern. As we mourn this terrible loss, I want to remind members of the campus community that counselors are available to help those struggling to cope with this tragedy.”
