No New Details Known on WKU-Glasgow Student Death

The Barren County coroner has not released the name of the WKU student who was found dead at the school's Glasgow campus Friday.

From the Glasgow Daily Times:

Western Kentucky University-Glasgow students had their Friday classes interrupted after a fellow student was found dead at the campus. Police are now investigating the death of the woman.

Glasgow police responded at about 1 p.m. to reports of a woman found dead in a first-floor bathroom at the facility. Police blocked off the area on the first floor.

Students were still in classes while the Glasgow Police Department waited for WKU police to arrive, and at about 2:30 p.m., the school was evacuated. All classes were cancelled for the rest of the day.
