Weapons complaint at Dal prompts police response, shelter in place request

A weapons complaint at Dalhousie University’s Killam Library prompted an on-campus police response on Tuesday. Students in the library were instructed to shelter in place, while those outside the library were told to avoid the library as officers responded to a report of “a man with a gun” in the area. Police searched each floor but did not find anyone matching that description in the area. Global News reports that police are investigating the source of the “suspicious telephone call.” Dal encouraged students to connect with Student Health and Wellness for support after the disruption.
