Just after midnight on Thursday night, Florida State’s campus was rocked by the horrible news that a gunman opened fire on students at the campus’ Stormier Library. Three people were wounded by stray bullets, but miraculously one student survived the attack in the most unusual way. The student, Jason Derfuss, posted on his Facebook showing pictures of books he had checked out of the library minutes before the incident, which stopped the bullets from harming him.
The gunman has since been identified as Myron May, who is an FSU graduate and now lawyer. The reason for this senseless act remains unknown.
