A woman was fatally shot and a man was shot and wounded in two separate shootings at South Carolina State University on Saturday.
Live 5 News reported the shootings occurred “during the university’s annual Homecoming celebration several hours after the football game.”
The gunfire reportedly came from Hugine Suites, a residence hall which is located on the South Carolina State University campus.
The campus was locked down for an unknown amount of time following the shootings. FOX News noted that all of Sunday’s homecoming events have been cancelled in light of the violence.
Sen. Tim Scott (R) used an X post to comment on the incident, saying, “My office is closely monitoring the situation at South Carolina State University.”
He added, “Praying for everyone’s safety on campus.”
