To the Campus Community:

Earlier this evening, UCCS and Colorado Springs Police responded to a report of shots fired in Columbine Hall. The report was erroneous. Following investigation by officers, the source of the noise was determined to be a class using hammers as part of a project.

There is no cause for alarm.

Your support in keeping UCCS safe is greatly appreciated. Anyone who observes a crime or suspicious activity is encouraged to call 255-3111.

Respectfully,

Brian McPike, chief of police
