thanks, 33 minutes first shot till police arrived ... wonder what delay was reporting it? Maybe they felt safe.

Police officers wear blue shirts and have badges and shoulder emblems that say “police”. Security guards wear white shirts and do not have badges. Their shoulder emblem and their photo ID cards say “Guard” Police officers carry department-approved handguns, whereas security guards are unarmed.

We provide a full range of services to our community, including proactive patrol, investigation of offenses, crime prevention activities, escorts, and motorist assists. To accomplish our mission, we patrol in marked police patrol vehicles, police bicycles, and by foot.


The Counseling Center at each campus can assist persons who are victims of rape or sexual assault with referrals to centers established to assist in such times of crisis.

I doubt the accuracy of that.

The shooting happened outside in a courtyard between an academic building and a library, Richard Carpenter with the Lone Star College System said. Police were dispatched at 12:51 p.m. CT and were on the scene within two minutes, according to Tello. Police confirmed a handgun was involved, but could not provide more information because the incident remains under investigation.

we all said the same thing as far as I can tell on time part, assuming 12:20 is right

Let's just say that the Sheriff dept. has a few tools working for them

'splain that.....*shaking head*

It does appear from the reports that law enforcement was on the scene quickly. All are fortunate that it was just an arguement and not an attack of some sort. LEO's cant possibly respond quickly enough to stop an entire event. Talk at the office centered around the question raised-- Would campus carry have stopped this ? IMO-- no, but it would have prevented any potential continuance.
