Old Dominion University students fought back against a gunman who broke into an ROTC classroom and opened fire, with one of the pupils stabbing the attacker, law enforcement officials said Friday.
After the assailant, identified as Mohamed Bailor Jalloh, started shooting, multiple students attacked him, with one of them stabbing him, two senior law enforcement officials briefed on the investigation told NBC News.
The attacker was subdued by students who “rendered him no longer alive,” according to Dominique Evans, special agent in charge of the agency’s Norfolk field office.
Army Lt. Col. Brandon A. Shah was killed in the attack, and two other Army personnel were wounded, officials said.
"The Old Dominion University community is grieving following the tragic act of violence on our main campus," according to a statement on the school's ROTC website Friday.
