Her old roommate who is like family was half a block away in her dorm. I told Tyann who was so close to turn off all lights and lay behind couch or bed on inside wall. She ended up sitting in closet. Serena and friends also sat in dark texting their friends. Wanted to scream but was busy texting everyone to stay calm and not feed into the panic. Took about a hour and half till the lock down was lifted and students were told the could move around but needed to be vigilant. Guarantee you this wasn't something we expected to encounter
