OT: Prayers for the SLU student found injured today

[Tonka]

I didn't see this anywhere on here.  This is terrible news.  A female student was shot multiple times today in a parking garage on Lindell Blvd down from campus.  She is in critical condition.  Prayers for this young lady.

Yikes,  I work a the office next door....

Now saying NOT shot. Undetermined injuries and not looking for a suspect. Person's belongings found at the top of the parking garage. Apparently a mystery. Of course, still a sad story, still  critical.

Sounds like a possible suicide attempt.

Prayers for the girl involved.

My question is how in the hell do St Louis finest not know if she was shot or fell from the building?

[thetorch]

STLPD clueless.  I've heard the same officer contradict himself 3 times about the condition of the body and crime scene on local news.

[Old guy]

I cannot see how the injuries from such a fall, if that is what happened, could be mistaken with shooting injuries.

I saw this story last night before going to bed and had so many questions, really strange, but I guess the main takeaway is that this was not a shooting and they are not looking for a suspect? So draw your own conclusions?

-if no shooting how about a change to the thread title?

Right, very confusing. I assume whoever called the police must have reported it as a shooting, but certainly the responding officers would have determined that wasn't the case fairly quickly. Definitely not something you want floating around when it wasn't a shooting.

I’ve also heard she was found on both the top of the garage , and the driveway down below going into the garage.

Hopefully none of our players will be blamed for this.

They were reporting it as a shooting well into the afternoon.

[Old guy]

Box, please do not bring this out, not even as a joke.

Which is what makes no sense to me, wouldn't you want that out as soon as possible? This is so strange, quotes from a story I found on Fox 2's website:

"By Thursday afternoon, St. Louis police said the woman had not been shot but could not determine the cause of the woman's injuries."

“At this point in time, that’s a possibility, but we’re not completely sure whether she fell from the rooftop or not,” he said. “We’re not sure yet. Her injuries are not consistent with that at this point.”
