COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — A shelter-in-place order for the University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) has been lifted for most of the campus while police investigate a death Friday morning.

About eight minutes later, authorities said there was no active shooter, but asked people on campus to continue sheltering in place until further notice. They also said campus would be closed for the day.
