An initial message was sent out over the university's internal public address system, and was later followed up by an alert sent to students via text message informing students and staff of the incident.
The garage was closed for several hours after the shooting, but at least partially reopened shortly after midnight. Many students waited around in hopes of getting their car out of the garage.
