Among the injured were a female student who was shot in the stomach and a male student who was shot in the arm, Tuskeegee Police Chief Patrick Mardis said.

The Alabama Bureau of Investigation is leading the investigation into the shooting.

Last year, four people were injured when a shooting erupted at an “unauthorized party” at West Commons, prompting school officials to cancel classes. according to WSFA.

A student blamed university officials for the security problems that plagued the school and allowed visitors to enter freely without being screened,

“They’re saying the party wasn’t authorized to blame it on us, that’s crazy because even if it was an authorized party, with the security measures we have in place, the same thing could have happened “, said Mechel Winters to the press. .

“I expected it to be a safe place because we are on campus and there should be security measures,” she said.
