A Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer was shot and killed Thursday night while investigating a disturbance on the Cambridge, Mass., campus , officials said.
There were reports of shots fired at 10:48 p.m. ET, and the situation remained "active and extremely dangerous," according to MIT's emergency website.
The situation remained "very fluid" after midnight, as police continued to sweep the campus.
Police were still looking for a suspect and no arrests had been made as of early Friday, according to the Middlesex County District Attorney’s office.
Around that time, there were reports of violence and an extremely heavy police presence in Watertown, Mass, which is only a few miles away. Gunshots and two loud booms were heard. It was unclear whether the scenes were related.
The National Guard was on the scene, securing a perimeter in Watertown. The FBI was also on the scene.
On the MIT campus, the area around the school’s Building 32 was cordoned off and students and staff were warned to "stay clear of area until further notice."
Massachusetts State Police were assisting Cambridge and MIT police in the investigation.
