Police search for a gunman at locked-down Yale

November 26, 2013 04:20

An anonymous caller warned authorities today that his roommate was on his way to Yale University to shoot people, leading officials to lock down the Ivy League campus as police searched for a gunman.

The hunt, which came as the school was on November break, was stymied by students who had stayed behind and were afraid to open their doors, police said.

An emergency call was received around 9:30 am local time from a man at a pay phone about a mile from the campus, said Officer David Hartman, a New Haven Police spokesman.
