LUBBOCK, Texas — Texas Tech University went on lockdown Monday evening after an officer was shot and killed at police headquarters, according to university spokesman Chris Cook.
In a statement to the student-run Daily Toreador, Texas Tech officers found drugs and paraphernalia while performing a student welfare check. When they took the suspect to the station for booking, the suspect “pulled a gun and shot an officer in the head,” killing him.
People were advised to take shelter but officials lifted the lockdown after the suspected shooter was arrested after fleeing.
