An active shooter was on the Ohio State campus.

…the school sent a series of tweets telling students to shelter in place and to “Run Hide Fight.”

Two of those people are in stable condition, the department said. It had no information on the other five people.

Around 10 a.m., the university’s emergency management department tweeted “Buckeye Alert: Active Shooter on campus. Run Hide Fight. Watts Hall. 19th and College.” Watts Hall is a materials science and engineering building.

“Run, hide, fight” is standard protocol for active shooter situations. It means: Run, evacuate if possible; hide, get silently out of view; or fight, as a last resort, take action to disrupt or incapacitate the shooter if your life is in imminent danger.
