At least one person was killed and six others wounded in a shooting Saturday night at Lincoln University in Pennsylvania, according to authorities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chester County District Attorney Chris de Barrena-Sarobe said in a Sunday morning press conference that the shooting occurred outside the university’s International Cultural Center during homecoming celebrations following a football game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“This is a devastating night,” Barrena-Sarobe said. “It was a chaotic scene and people fled in every direction.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One person was detained and was in possession of a firearm, Barrena-Sarobe said, adding that it was possible that there might be another shooter. Officials do not believe that the incident was a planned mass shooting, the district attorney said.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n “We are investigating with the full power of federal, state and local law enforcement,” Barrena-Sarobe said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Chester County District Attorney’s Office said in an initial statement on social media<\/a> early on Sunday that law enforcement was “investigating the shooting at Lincoln University” and had identified seven gunshot victims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said in a post to X that he was briefed on the shooting and offered his support to the university. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Lincoln University, a historically Black university, is located in the southeastern part of Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
