At least one student was killed and another was critically wounded in a shooting at a residence hall at Kentucky State University on Tuesday, and a suspect who is not a student at the school was in custody, officials said.
The shooting was the second in four months in the same area of the university.
The suspect in Tuesday’s More...shooting is not a Kentucky State student, Scott Tracy, assistant chief of police for Frankfort, said during a news conference. Tracy said police responded swiftly to the shooting.
“Frankfort police believe this to be an isolated incident and there are no active safety concerns on campus at this time,” he said.
One student who was shot at the residence hall is in critical condition but is stable, according to the university. The school is not immediately releasing the names of the students.
“We are in close contact with the families and are providing every available support to them,” the school said in a statement, adding that counseling and support services are available.
