Lincoln University makes first use of safety app after weekend shooting
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - A Jefferson City shooting that left a Lincoln University student charged with murder and another man dead prompted the first use of a smartphone app meant to convey safety information to students.
Jefferson City police say Lincoln student Marquis D. Avant, 22, was involved in the shooting that happened at a party less than a mile from the LU campus early Saturday.
The crime occured less than a week after Lincoln starting using the Rave Guardian application.
LU spokeswoman Misty Young said the LU police department and the Jefferson City Police Department were notified through the app of social media activity that described several incidents of implied retaliation for the weekend shooting and multiple threats involving weapons against students.
