At least seven people were taken to a hospital after an active shooter was reported on the Ohio State University campus, authorities said.

It’s not clear the type of injuries nor conditions of those transported.

“Buckeye Alert: Active Shooter on campus. Run Hide Fight. Watts Hall. 19th and College,” OSU Emergency Management tweeted Monday morning.

Watts Hall is the university’s materials science and engineering building.

OSU senior Anthony Falzarano, 22, said he was in class at the time of the shooting.

“We heard a lot of sirens. I was in class and everyone got a text message at the same time for the emergency alert,” he told CNN. “Someone said they heard popping right before we got the alert, but I didn’t hear it. We are in a shelter-in-place right now in the building next door. ”

    Here you go again, He came from Somalia Africa and was accepted in the U.S. as a refugee,very smart, 18 years of age,a student at the Ohio State University.The world was before him,but according to him “I am a muslim and it is difficult to pray at the university,”so he took a car and tried to kill his fellow students.When the car stopped some people rush to see if he was OK, not knowing his motive. The guy took a butchers knife slashing those who came to help.
    When Trump say these people should not be welcomed in the U.S…Oh! he is a racist.

    According to the song “Only a fool hurts his own heart”

    The shots came from the police who brought him down
