At least three people were killed and five more injured, some critically, after a gunman attacked Michigan State University on Monday night, campus police. After a four-hour manhunt across a darkened, sprawling campus of 50,000 students, a suspect was confirmed to have died, with authorities saying he had apparently shot himself.
Campus police at Michigan State University had ordered students to shelter in place immediately around 8:18 p.m. after shots were fired at Berkey Hall. “Secure-in-Place immediately. Run, Hide, Fight,” an initial email alert read. In an earlier press conference, Rozman confirmed that two shootings had occurred at two separate locations, and that one suspect—a lone gunman—had last seen been leaving the MSU Union on foot.

He reported seeing neighbors covering their windows with blankets and sirens “buzzing like crazy” outside. “Having to dread getting a call tomorrow about a friend being dead is not the way I wanted college to be,” Khan said., saying in part, “Let’s wrap our arms around the Spartan community tonight. We will keep everyone updated as we learn more.”
