On the news now, not sure what is going on.

Edit: http://www.whsv.com/content/news/Active-shooting-reported-at-Richmond-bus-station-374167481.html

RICHMOND, Va. (WHSV) -- An active shooter was reported at a Greyhound bus station in Richmond Thursday afternoon.

Richmond's ABC affiliate, WRIC, reported "Richmond Police and Virginia State Police troopers are on the scene of an active shooting at the Greyhound bus station on North Boulevard in Richmond. Richmond Police have confirmed that a shooting occurred. No news on how many people were shot at this time."

On Twitter, WRIC reports, "Police on scene of active shooting situation at Greyhound bus station in #RVA, possibly 4 people wounded."

This is a developing situation. As soon as we learn more, we'll post an update here.

Looks like 4 injured. Sad when I see this type of news and immediately think "only" 4 people injured. :\

Edit #2: Seems to be resolved:

OFFICERS INJURED: VSP confirms 2 troopers and 1 woman sent to hospital for treatment -Greyhound Bus Station SHOOTING SUSPECT IN CUSTODY

for what it's worth, your link seems to be a bigger event, anyway. sounds like fortunately there weren't any fatalities in Va.

I guess technically that could qualify as "in custody"

Nothing good ever happens at a Greyhound Bus Station.

It'd go doubly-so for that station in particular. Hope victim injuries aren't too severe.

Folks, take a MegaBus or Amtrak to and from that city if you can. Far more convenient from downtown too.

I mean the train station isn't amazing either... but it's an improvement.

Any of them since many justices are going to be retiring or place already vacant.

Now you might have to get more involved and join larger campaigns to counteract the nra in your district.
