The institution in Maryland was placed on lockdown after a former student made threats online that appeared as though they were on campus, a source said.
A law enforcement officer shot a student at the U.S. Naval Academy on Thursday during a lockdown that was prompted by online threats from someone who had been kicked out of the institution, a source said.
The shooting on the Annapolis, Maryland, campus occurred after the midshipmen, which is what all students at the academy are called, mistook a responding law enforcement officer for a threat and struck the officer with a parade rifle used for training, the source said.
The student the law enforcement officer shot was hospitalized and is expected to be OK, the source said.
Yes. But it is worth noting the student did not know he was a cop
That student fucking earned his war story. “Yeah I cracked a cop in the face with a rifle and then he shot me but I survived because the cop was a pussy”
