FSU cancels weekend athletic events after active shooter on campus

(This story has been updated to add new information).

Florida State athletics announced the cancellation of all events through Sunday, April 20, following an active shooter incident on campus Thursday.

Officials said a suspect was in custody, with two people killed and five injured after gunfire erupted on Florida State’s campus in Tallahassee, Florida.

Athletics events canceled include the Seminoles’ baseball series opener vs. Virginia at Dick Howser Stadium on Thursday, and softball’s game against Georgia Tech at the Seminole Softball Complex on Friday.

A cancellation instead of a postponement could signify that the games will not be made up at a future date. The university also made note that updates for next week’s athletics home events will be ‘communicated when available.’
