Blake Maday, a Michigan State University student on campus, said that students were sheltered inside. 

"Everyone is barricaded in their places with lights out," Maday told Fox News Digital. "Students are sending in all types of reports and it seems like people are sending the police on a wild goose chase with nothing confirmed."

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said that she's been briefed by Michigan State Police about the shooting. 

"Let’s wrap our arms around the Spartan community tonight," Whitmer tweeted. Sen. Debbie Stabenow also tweeted that she was tracking the shooting.
