LANSING ? Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel issued the following statement following the active shooter at Michigan State University:

?As a parent, there is no greater fear than having your child tell you there is an active shooter at their school. I experienced this terror along with thousands of other MSU families last night. While my Spartan sons are safe, I am mourning the devastating loss and senseless violence. ?The events at Michigan State University are a tragedy for the entire state of Michigan. ?My thoughts are with the victims, their families, friends, and loved ones.?

I want to thank everyone in law enforcement who worked to secure the campus and protect the community. ?I am hopeful that the investigation reveals how we can better protect our children, our neighbors, and all those who call Michigan home.?
