THE IUP Football Thread

[Fightingscot82]

If it was homecoming related it wasn’t on campus. Not even close to campus really. I don’t know how I didn’t hear three helicopters coming in because this is .5 miles from my house and basically adjacent to Indiana High School. Reliable updates are hard to find but apparently two suspects were driving west on Route 22 (toward Pittsburgh for what it’s worth) in a gray sedan. I’m not sharing any personal descriptions because I can’t speak to the reliability of the information.

I think something similar happened at IUP Homecoming weekend several years ago, but this has happened at several schools Homecoming weekends. Unaffiliated individual rents a hall and throws a party targeting students & alumni of certain orgs. Gets out of control. People injured.

Any updates on Karst?

Strangely, I recall a lot of people who know football who thought that. Not sure why but they did.

Because it met their narrative that's why! Tort is a people pleaser with the Alumni. Curt did what it took to win. Just look at what he's doing at JMU. He's a winner!

I know exactly where theChase Center is..it used to be where LGBT dances were held back in the day..many would be students.

Currently 2 victims who were wounded are IUP students. There may be more. Also there is likely more than 1 shooter. Of course it’s all preliminary and may change. The person killed was from Pittsburgh.

One person was killed and at least five others injured in a shooting after midnight in Indiana (not on campus). It was at a community center near the Chevy Chase section of town. Suspect is at large. It's all over the news for more details.

WPXI is reporting the victims were "college aged" but stressed it was not an IUP-sanctioned event. The shooting occured around 12:35 a.m.

I referenced mass shootings which is defined as at least 4 people shot.

[IUPbigINDIANS]

(9) now confirmed shot, all between ages 18 and 23 per latest news release.

After 278 days in 2023 there have been more than 500 mass shootings in the United States. We are closing in on a 2 per-day incidence. We might have a dysfunctional society. Just sayin'.

That's crazy. For (8) people to be shot that must have been a barrage of shots fired. These aren't typically marksmen firing these guns.

Hopefully they arrest these suspects quickly.

I think someone must have rented it for a private event. I don’t think there was any official Iup organization involved. Afaik

Seems pretty late at night for a community center event to still be going on ?

Homecoming party?

It was a private party. The word is it was for Philly and Pittsburgh alumni and students . Saw a post saying it was outside the building, which was very crowded. It’s ashame because the center does great work with students and dei
