Campus Safety Message-Gainesville: The University of Florida Police Department would like to provide additional information regarding two individuals who are walking along the boundary of the Gainesville campus with what appear to be rifles.

At 12:25 p.m., on Wednesday, Sept. 9, UFPD received reports of two individuals walking along the public sidewalk adjacent to campus with what appeared to be rifles. These individuals are doing so on public sidewalks and have not walked onto campus.

While this type of demonstration can be alarming, Florida law does not prohibit individuals from carrying rifles openly while in public spaces.

UFPD would like to thank all who have taken the time to report this incident. A safe campus is a vigilant one.
