According to local media reports, Richmond police are responding to an active shooter situation at the Greyhound station on North Boulevard.

Multiple ambulances have been called to the scene.


The Greyhound station is directly across the street from The Diamond. That area on North Boulevard is closed to traffic, and police are directing traffic.

Sources have told two local TV stations that the number of injured in a Richmond, Va., bus station shooting could be increased to six. This has not been confirmed and it’s unclear if the counts include the suspect, who was also reportedly shot. – Jillian
