Sparty statue becomes makeshift memorial after Michigan State mass shooting
All day Tuesday and into the evening, students and others continue to gather at the Sparty statue - an iconic landmark on campus, just to stand in the silence and calm. It is a stark contrast to the chaos and terror endured last night.
EAST LANSING, Mich. (FOX 2) - A joint effort between the FBI and Michigan State University will commence Wednesday to help return property to students following Monday's shooting.
Belongings left behind at Berkey Hall and the MSU Union where both shootings occurred can be returned to students beginning Wednesday.
The FBI's Detroit Field Office and Victim Services Division is assisting the school and invites students and representatives of students who were at either location to meet today and tomorrow.
Those who were at the Union can claim their belongings at 1:30 p.m. They'll meet at the west entrance of the building. Faculty and staff who were in office space at the union can show up around 4 p.m.
Those who were in Berkey Hall can claim their belongings left behind starting at 10 a.m. on Thursday. They can meet officers at the east entrance.

The MSU Department of Police and Public Safety will be working jointly with the FBI to assist the Spartan community. We are all in this together."
Three people died and five others were critically injured during the shooting. Vigils honoring the deceased were held at their respective high schools Tuesday night.
