A hammer and chisel that were used to repair a door have been identified as the likely source of the reported gunshot sounds on Tuesday evening at Nassau Hall, the University said Thursday.
The door repair happened around 20 minutes before a female caller told the University’s Department of Public Safetyshe had heard the sound of gunshots inside the building, according to a press release issued Thursday night. The call happened at 7:55 p.m., and the worker using the hammer and chisel left the building before the call was made.
