A retired Cal State Fullerton administrator was stabbed to death Monday morning on the first day of the university’s academic year, and the assailant is still at large, police said.
The attack happened as campus police were filming active-shooter scenarios in the Pollack Library, a campus Carl’s Jr. and elsewhere to prepare students and staff for emergencies, according to campus spokeswoman Cerise Metzger. The filming was canceled after reports of the attack. Cal State Fullerton employees peered at the scene as they carried their lunches back to the College Park office from restaurants across the street.
LaToya Green, a communications lecturer at the university, said panicked students were texting her all morning. Green, 30, works in the College Park office building that towers over the crime scene.“Before the location was determined, some of my students were in a panic,” Green said. “You never think this is going to happen at your campus.”
