| 0:00.0 | There was a shooting at UPMC Memorial Hospital. |
| 0:03.2 | He basically held an ICU hostage. |
| 0:05.7 | A police officer who came to provide help was shot in the torso. |
| 0:09.3 | Unfortunately, he passed away. |
| 0:10.8 | The hospitals now have to kind of think about what they can do in order to mitigate these circumstances |
| 0:19.9 | before they turn into these ultimate tragedies. |
| 0:25.3 | Because you put a lot of people at risk. |
| 0:27.4 | I can't even imagine if someone came onto our floor and did that. |
| 0:31.7 | You come to the labor and delivery floor and do something like that. |
| 0:34.6 | I can't even imagine what the headlines would be. |
| 0:43.5 | But again, if it's acceptable at schools, taking out kindergartners, then why wouldn't it be acceptable at a laborer and delivery floor? |
| 0:46.3 | Which is extremely sad. |
