  "context": "[NBC News](https://www.nbcboston.com/news/national-international/12-injured-several-minors-shooting-near-florida-am-university-stadium/4036897/) reports that 12 people, 11 of them by gunfire, were hurt in a shooting near Perry and Manatee Streets just before 8:00 PM EDT on Saturday, October 24, 2026, hours after Florida A&M's homecoming game at Bragg Memorial Stadium, and that Florida State, about a mile away, advised students, faculty and staff in the Tallahassee area to remain indoors as a precaution while saying there was no indication its people were involved. A [SubX.News post](https://x.com/SubxNews/status/2114202454338257028) made at 11:48 PM EDT says FSU issued the alert at 10:00 PM EDT. Some coverage attributes similar remain-indoors wording to FAMU's own alert, so the attribution here follows the reports that name Florida State. FAMU's first post on the shooting, on its own X account, came at [9:57 PM EDT](https://x.com/FAMU_1887/status/2114174411829911695); FAMU's alerts are documented in their own case. [Tallahassee police](https://x.com/TallyPD/status/2114681817139986615) announced an arrest at 7:33 AM EDT on October 26, 2026, describing the shooting as occurring at approximately 8 p.m. near Perry and Manatee streets. The opening of the FSU message was double-read from [@FSUAlert](https://x.com/FSUAlert/status/2114175134009278915) on 2026-11-09; the X auto-post is truncated and the linked Everbridge page did not render, so the full text is still to be recovered. The person arrested is deliberately not named here.",
  "keyFindings": [
    "A second university issued its own protective instruction for an off-campus shooting at a neighboring campus, extending it to its entire city community.",
    "The reported FSU alert and FAMU's first X post came within minutes of each other, about two hours after the shooting."
