I'm a student at UMKC and was there around the time they were working the scene. It was not at the library. Apparently the body was in a grassy area across the street from the Student Union. They had the whole area blocked off around 5:30ish, maybe shortly before. No word from the news or anything so far, not even an alert from the school...which normally goes out when crazy things happen at or around campus. Some speculation on twitter that it was a suicide, but nothing definite has really been said by anyone. Crazy stuff...
Is the FBI there?

ReplyDeletethe grassy area across from the student union is the property of Linda Hall Library.... you must be thinking of the miller nicholas library.
ReplyDeleteIt was technically on the property of Linda Hall Library. but it was closer to the Student Union than it was the actual library.
ReplyDeleteIt was a suicide. I spoke to someone there. That's not technically UMKC property either.

ReplyDeleteIt was a man in his 70s according to an email sent out by UMKC this morning. Investigation is still open, apparent suicide
