BLACKSBURG, Va. — A female student was stabbed to death Wednesday night on Virginia Tech’s campus, the first killing at the school since a mass shooting there in 2007.
The killing triggered a crisis notification system that was revamped after the shooting rampage. An electronic warning about 7:45 p.m. told students to stay in place while police investigated. Students were told about an hour later they could resume normal activity.
A male suspect was taken into custody, along with a knife police believe was used at the scene, a cafe in the Graduate Life Center. Both the victim and the suspect are graduate students at Virginia Tech, and police believe they knew each other, the school said.
