1 Student Dead In Shooting At Kentucky State University In Frankfort, Suspect In Custody

At least one student was killed, while another was left severely injured after a shooting inside a residence hall at Kentucky State University on Tuesday.

The incident prompted an immediate shutdown of campus activities for the rest of the week. The Associated Press quoted authorities as saying that the suspect, who was taken into custody, is not enrolled at the university.

The gunfire erupted around 3 pm (local time) inside Whitney M Young Jr Hall, a student dormitory on the Frankfort campus.
