News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

~~There's footage of an older white male being taken into custody. This specific video is sfw, but part of a thread that is not NSFL.~~
~~I removed the video link because it's too easy to click the wrong one. Screenshot:~~
Edit- Screenshot also removed now, the University spokesman is reporting the man from video was not the shooter.
That suspect, the older white male taken into custody, is now being reported as not the shooter.
I can't give a precise source, hopping through live news streams... I think 'KSL News Specialists', they're on the scene at UVU, got a red and white text overlay, not 100% certain that was the one.
But if that is correct and accurate, that would mean the actual shooter is currently unknown and at large, obviously 'armed and dangerous'.
EDIT: Yep, KSL, they just repeated what I said here, original suspect not the shooter, actual shooter would then be at large.
ALSO: Kirk is dead, literally out of Trump's mouth, bunch of news agencies are running it now too.

Appreciate the update. Guess we'll see what shakes out.
....got more updates in the previous comment.
Hey there, shit, you found a 'print' source, good work!
NYT recently reported this isn't the shooter and this guy was released. He is just some random guy who is not involved.
I'd recommend deleting this comment. They confirmed this man was unrelated to the shooting and was let go
