Campus police were notified of an incident in Evans Hall, a male dorm, at approximately 10 p.m. Saturday, and arrived at the scene within one minute, according to Dr. Mark Keenum, Mississippi State University president.
Police found 21-year-old John Sanderson at the scene in grave condition. He was taken to the hospital, where he died about 30 minutes later.
According to the MSU website, the suspects are three black males who fled Evans Hall in a blue Crown Victoria.
“The perpetrators fled our campus, but we’re still attempting to identify who those perpetrators are and so we’re following every lead in order to do that,” said Dr. Bill Kibler, vice president of student affairs at MSU.
