Oct. 19 (UPI) — An early Sunday shooting on the main campus of Oklahoma State University has left three people injured, only one a student, authorities said, as they continue to investigate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The shooting occurred as a result of what the Oklahoma State University Police Department said in a statement<\/a> was a “disagreement” that occurred outside of Carreker East hall<\/a>, a three-story residential building on the northeast side of campus, in Stillwater, located about 64 miles northeast of Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n None of the victims were identified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The one student injured in the shooting suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen and was airflighted to the OU Health University of Oklahoma Medical Center in Oklahoma City after being transported by private vehicle to the Stillwater Medical Center. The victim is listed in stable condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A second victim, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, was also driven to Stillwater and airflighted to the OU Medical Center and was listed as in stable condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The third victim has since left St. John’s Hospital in Tulsa after receiving treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Police said their investigation indicates that there was a large off-campus party at the Payne County Expo Center, which ended around 2:30 a.m. CDT. A group of individuals who left the party then made their way to Carreker East for an after-party when the shooting erupted, according to police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to authorities, police arrived at the hall “within minutes” of the shooting, secured the scene and determined there was no ongoing threat to campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Stillwater Police Department said in a separate statement<\/a> that its officers responded to the shooting at 3:42 a.m. and that they had performed “life-saving measures” at the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The investigation is ongoing, and OSUPD is asking for members of the public with information about the shooting to come forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n No indication of who is responsible was mentioned. A statement<\/a> from OSUPD at 11 a.m. stated “the suspect is no longer on campus. As the event happened, all parties left campus.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n “We are working diligently to bring this to a close with the assistance of Stillwater Police Department and OSBI,” OSUPD said on its Facebook page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is collaborating with the OSUPD in processing evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
