“This was an isolated shooting incident in a courtyard,” Aaron said. “There were never, we believe, any other students in danger in dormitories or elsewhere on campus.”

“The person who fired those shots put innocent persons in extreme danger in this isolated incident,” Aaron said. “We’re hoping that TSU students that have this video, have this knowledge, understand that this person put them in danger tonight, and will report what they know.”

Students did manage to take some videos of the fight and the police are encouraging anyone who scattered after the shooting to come forward and help add to the evidence. The police do not hve a description of the suspect and are still investigating if it was an exchange of gunfire.
