At least 33 dead in rampage at Virginia college

15 other at Virginia Tech wounded in worst mass shooting in U.S. history

BLACKSBURG, Va. -Thirty-three people, including the gunman, were killed at a Virginia university Monday in the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. At least 15 other people were injured, some of them as they leapt to safety from the fourth floor of a classroom building.

The shootings, which took place in two locations on campus, came just four days before the eighth anniversary of the Columbine High School bloodbath near Littleton, Colo.
