One person is dead and another is in critical condition after a shooter opened fire at Kentucky State University Tuesday.
The Frankfort Police Department responded to an “active aggressor” at the historically black university around 3:35 p.m., according to WLWT. The shooting happened at a dorm on campus known as Young Hall, CNN reported.
Police have taken a shooter, who has yet to be named publicly, into custody, the Frankfort Police Department said in a statement.
“We will share more information as available,” Democratic Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear said in an X post Tuesday. “Law enforcement are on scene, and a suspect has been arrested. Let’s pray for all those affected.”
The school remains “on lockdown until further notice,” the police department said.
A university official told WKYT that the shooting left multiple people injured.
