A shooting during homecoming week at Tuskegee U. in Alabama ends in 1 person dead, several injured
This was the third shooting at a university homecoming in the past month.
One person died and several others were injured early Sunday when shots rang out on the final day of homecoming week at Alabama’s Tuskegee University, according to CNN.
The one person who died was not a student at Tuskegee, the university said in news release. “Several others including Tuskegee University students were injured and are receiving treatment at East Alabama Medical Center in Opelika and Baptist South Hospital in Montgomery.”
No arrests have been made at this time, and it is not clear who did the shooting. University law enforcement has “secured the scene,” and the Alabama Bureau of Investigations is looking into the matter. This was the university’s 100th homecoming week.
This was the third shooting at a university homecoming in the past month. The other two happened at Albany State University and Tennessee State University, with a combined total of four deaths and 17 injured, according to CNN.
