quote:Updated at 1:57 p.m. ET: Three people were killed Friday in an attack involving a bow and arrow-type weapon at Casper College in Casper, Wyo., police and college officials said.
The attack occurred before 9 a.m. (7 a.m. ET) at the physical science center, said Rich Fujita, a spokesman for the college. Police indicated that the weapon on campus was a "bow and arrow type," Fujita told NBC News.
Police told NBC station KCWY of Casper that two of the bodies were found on campus. One appeared to be a male faculty member, and the other appeared to be of "student age," Fujita said. The third body was found off campus.
The campus was locked down temporarily while police checked for other suspects, but the lockdown was later lifted. An alert on the community college's website said that all classes and activities had been canceled and that counselors were being provided for the colleges faculty, students and staff.
Casper College is a two-year community college of 4,400 students in Wyoming's second-largest city.
The school has a small security team on campus, but they're not armed.
"It's such a small town that Casper police is very close," Fujita said.

What exactly is a "bow and arrow type weapon"?
No Clue.
Might be time to ban higher education.
NOW we're talkin'...
What exactly is a "bow and arrow type weapon"?
Fishing spear gun... ?
Or ballistic whaling harpoon...
Both are "bow and arrow" TYPE weapons...
IN that they propel an elongated 'arrow' like projectile.
One with rubber bands... The other with either burnt powder or compressed gas.
Ohh wait... They didn't say anything about retrieval tackle being utilized did they.
Sorry... My bad. [:I]
I remember tanking Tinker Toys. I would take a wheel and add two spokes 180 degrees apart. Then put a good rubber band through the spokes "groove" to the other spokes groove. Then you take a third spoke through the center hole of the wheel and put the rubber band in the groove, pull back and voila!! Homemade bow and arrow-type weapon.
If you understand and also did the same as above, let me know in a reply. (Not trying to hijack)
