‘Active shooter’ reported on Emory University campus

An active shooter has been reported on the Emory University campus, officials said.

Few details were immediately released, but a post on X from the school’s Office of Critical Event Preparedness and Response alerted students and staff of an “active shooter” at the Emory Point CVS. A later post from Emory College stated the shooter was on campus near Emory Point.

“RUN, HIDE, FIGHT. Avoid the area,” the public post reads.

Emory Point is a mixed-use development where students often rent apartments. Clifton Road divides Emory Point from several university buildings.
