Police: There's no gunman at Stony Brook University

Campus police at Stony Brook University on eastern Long Island have searched the campus and have given the "all clear" after investigating a report of a man with a handgun on campus. There were no reports of shots being fired.

An alert on the university Web site said Suffolk County Police had conducted an extensive search of the Stony Brook University campus and determined that there is no threat.

Police issued an "all-clear" at 4 p.m. to continue normal classes and activities.

About an hour earlier, the university Web site had reported that a young male "fled the Student Activity Center Cafeteria and later displayed what was reported as a handgun."
