走到窗邊望去,大中午的按理講路上應該熙熙攘攘,然而老美已經都縮的一個看不見了,就像家門口的鼴鼠一樣。天上不知什麼時候來了三架直升飛機,信息時代的迅捷使得整個州都快速行動起來。我推開門,迎面碰上小秘,問我幹嗎去,我說去吃飯。小秘眼睛瞪得老大」Are you nuts? The campus has been locked down!」
主路上靜悄悄的一個人也沒有,不遠處的一棟樓已經被警察圍得水泄不通,有幾個學生-面露興奮之色一臉期待的樣子在門口徘徊,走上去聊天,他們也說不清楚,據說是正在上課,只聽有女生尖叫一聲He』s got a gun!大夥就轟的一聲鳥獸散了,有個老黑一臉遺憾說damn,老子跑的太快,都沒來得及看清楚咋回事。有人調笑說也許是個BB Gun,還有人說這小妞也許是嗑藥了,出現幻覺也說不定,總之眾說紛紜。但見旁邊一個女孩一邊哭一邊打電話。大家面面相覷作聲不得。
Update: The Kingston campus lock-down has ended. State police have cleared Chafee Hall. The investigation has revealed that at no time was there a gun or an active shooter on the campus. Everyone can resume their normal activities. Shuttles and RIPTA will resume shortly. Classes will resume on Friday, April 5.

After an extensive investigation by the R.I. State Police, South Kingstown and University of Rhode Island Campus police, there is no evidence of any gunman on the URI campus. They did however find two Nerf guns that belonged to a student who was in the Chafee building auditorium.
竟然是Nerf gun,玩笑開大了吧。
