THREE PEOPLE HAVE been shot at Tennessee State University in Nashville.
Tanya Stone, operations supervisor for the Metro Nashville emergency communication centre, said authorities had transported three people with gunshot wounds to a Nashville hospital after a shooting on campus.
She didn’t know if they were students and didn’t have any information on their condition.
She said police were “all over the scene” and that there was no indication of an active shooter.
The Tennessean reports police blocked off an entrance to the university and made non-students leave the campus.
A university spokesman didn’t immediately respond to messages seeking comment. University police dispatchers said they couldn’t release any information.
The incident comes just over a week after three people were wounded by gunfire at an off-campus party across the street from the college.

Here we go again. When will young people ever learn. Exactly the same criteria as of just about every weekend over the past years. Note : single vehicle collision, late night / early morning , back road or minor road. Most of these collisions involved speed and alcohol , so lets. See how this incident pans out. God help these poor people.
Right on the nose.
Its a shame, a waste…. And an inevitability…. Week after week.
Yep…every week.
People use young people as scapegoats … We’re not bad people like !
It’s not that at all,early 20′s and teens dying on our roads every weekend. Personally I think more education is needed. I had a tracker in my car for 4 years when I was younger which meant I couldn’t speed,imagine if all young driver had that..
Let’s not rush to judgement, maybe the car was faulty or the brakes failed please let the Garda do the job of finding the facts.
Deniese.
This is a terrible accident but very few car crashes accur because of mechanical failure. ( I believe its around half of one percent)
Alchol,Speed and or human error are almost always to blame.
So sad for the families involved
RIP to the young man.
Driving in the city and on rural backroad roads is not the same. There is lots of factors that may have caused this tragic loss of life. So it’s pointless taking the high moral ground and making generalisations. Rest in peace
RIP
Won’t be easy for the 3 survivors Thoughts and prayers with all involved
I live in the area and didn’t hear anything till I saw this article now. Does anyone know if the victim was named yet. Very sad. RIP to him and thought with the family and friends.
