Paige Miller, an FSU freshman, was in the restroom outside her classroom at the Moore building next to the Student Union when she heard four loud bangs.“I thought it was the roof collapsing honestly, and then suddenly three girls come running in and one of them was crying," she said.
"One of the girls looks over at my stall and tells me to call the police because there’s an active shooter.”She called 911. With no lock on the restroom door, they held it shut for 20 minutes until police arrived. When she came outside, she saw one person on the ground surrounded by officers.
Miller assumed he was a shooter but wasn’t sure. Miller also heard police say they were looking for a shotgun. She saw what appeared to be two injured people on the ground by the Student Union.“We saw them when they were still on the grass,” she said. “I think they moved a couple to the pavement.” She said law enforcement was swarming everywhere: “It was terrifying.”
