No one is in custody at this time, UD said.
A shelter-in-place order was issued and then lifted approximately an hour and a half later, once officers cleared the scene.
Some students said this is the last thing they wanted to see happen.
“I mean we love (officers) and protective. Hopefully, we don’t need them. But everyone’s having a good time right now,” Ethan Turner, a junior at UD said.
As celebrations continue UD advises students to report any suspicious activities to Public Safety at 937-229-2121.
