**FIVE SHOT OUTSIDE DORMS AT VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY, POLICE HUNTING MULTIPLE SHOOTERS**Five people were shot early Saturday outside residence halls at Virginia State University in Ettrick, Virginia, sending the historically Black campus into a lockdown that lasted more than seven hours.Officers from VSU Police and the Chesterfield County Police Department responded to the 3300 block of Boisseau Street just before 1:30 a.m. and found five gunshot victims near the Quad Annexes student housing complex. All five were taken to area hospitals. One is in critical condition after initially being listed with life-threatening injuries. The other four are expected to survive.Investigators say this was not a drive-by. Chesterfield County police have confirmed only one of the victims was a student and believe the others may be from surrounding communities. Police are searching for more than one shooter, and the university has said the shooting involved "multiple suspects."No arrests have been announced.The timing has hit the campus hard. Residence halls opened a week ago and classes are set to resume Monday, and many students had just finished the university's "New Trojans Experience" orientation for incoming freshmen.The lockdown was lifted around 9 a.m., though the university warned that a heavy law enforcement presence would remain while the investigation continues. The Chesterfield County Police Department is leading the case with help from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Hanover County Sheriff's Office.Virginia State University enrolls about 5,700 students and sits roughly 24 miles south of Richmond. It was the first fully state-supported four-year college for Black Americans.Anyone with information is asked to contact Chesterfield County Police.#CampusSafety #BreakingNews #GunViolence ...

BREAKING: Amazon Warehouse in Cocoa Evacuated After Workers Report Trouble Breathing, Hazmat Crews RespondBrevard County Fire Rescue responded to a hazardous materials call Friday morning at Amazon's MLB1 fulfillment center at 3655 Grissom Parkway in Cocoa.The call came in at 10:41 a.m. and was closed at 12:21 p.m., a response lasting roughly one hour and 40 minutes. Six units were responded.Photos and video from the scene obtained by The Rocket show employees evacuated from the building with fire and police units staged outside the facility.An employee who was on site tells The Rocket that multiple workers reported difficulty breathing and that something in the building was causing respiratory irritation, but that no one had identified the source.According to the employee, the fire department cleared the area as safe but still did not know what was causing the irritation. As of shortly before 1 p.m., the employee said workers remained outside and that site leadership was waiting on word from corporate or regional management on whether to shut the building down for the day."They are currently trying to make a plan to have us return, having no idea what is causing the distress," the employee said.The employee also described MLB1 as a hazmat facility where workers receive no hazard pay, and said management appeared more concerned with production than with employees.The Rocket has reached out to Brevard County Fire Rescue for official details, including whether anyone was treated or transported, and to Amazon for comment on the evacuation, the substance involved, and whether the building will remain open.If you work at MLB1 and saw what happened this morning, we want to hear from you. Message this page or email editor@thespacecoastrocket.com. We can keep you anonymous.#Brevard #Cocoa #SpaceCoast ... See MoreSee Less
