We are told now that the still-unidentified shooter at Virginia Tech was a Chinese national who came here on a student visa last August. From the
Daily Mail:
He was said to have quarrelled in a dormitory with his girlfriend, whom he believed had been seeing another man. A student adviser was called to sort out the row. But the killer produced a gun and shot dead both his girlfriend and the adviser.
Yet we are also told that the cops suspect that the
bomb threats to the engineering building on the other side of campus -- where the second attacks took place -- were an attempt to test campus security.
Can we reconcile these two stories? Was he after the girl or the building?
Still no explanation for the original story of an arrest after the first murders...
