Nokia N70 Captures First Images from Virginia Tech University Massacre Print E-mail
Written by SymbianOne   
Monday, 16 April 2007
A terrible day once again in the US as a crazed gunman carried out a masacre on the campus at Virginia Tech University. A student, Jamal Albarghouti was outside the Engineering Building (Norris Hall) capturing the mayhem in video via a Nokia N70 camerphone.

No doubt the images and sounds of this day will ring out loud and reach many people around the Globe very quickly. Once again camerphone technology has brouhgt these images to World and will no doubt help in putting together a timeline.

Students and many others are concerned because there was an apparent 2 hour time gap between shootings with very little notice or warning passed along to student s of the University.

Of Note: there's been much discussion and speculation already as to why there was a breakdown in communication and why after 2 hours were students and faculty not notified about an incident taking place on campus. Apparently the University did send email messages 2 hours after the first shooting. This message warned recipients about a shooting that had taken place. Obviously email is only a valid means of communication for those that are regularly checking email. Perhaps a text messaging solution would have been a more efficient way of contacting the masses since obviously a large % of population have their mobile with them at all times...

Cameraphone users can send their Video and images of breaking news like this via the CNN i-Report website - See details here

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the victims, their frinds and families, students at Virginia Tech, and the people of Blacksburg, Virginia.
