Radnor Township Police are on the scene. The university says to avoid Law School Scarpa Hall and move to a secure location and barricade doors.

A source tells FOX 29 that he was moving his son into school today and was attending an outdoor mass when suddenly the priest stopped speaking and left the altar. Word started whispering through the crowd that there was a shooter and everyone began to scatter.
It's unclear at this time if there are any injuries.
