Oklahoma State University Shooting: 3 Injured

An active shooter in a dorm at Oklahoma State University Sunday morning left three people wounded during homecoming weekend.

The shooting took place in the early hours of the morning at a residential hall on the campus in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and at least one of the victims is a student, police said.

The victims were part of an off-campus party Saturday night that then moved into the dorms in the wee hours.

“At approximately 3:40 a.m., the OSU Police Department responded to Carreker East residential hall after shooting victims reported the incident,” the official OSU Police and Safety account wrote on X.

“There were multiple victims, one of which is known to be an OSU student. All are being treated at hospitals in Oklahoma City and Tulsa,” the statement continued, citing OSU Chief of Police Michael Beckner.

“Initial reports indicate a large, private party occurred at an off-campus location. After the gathering disbanded, some attendees returned to Carreker East where the shooting occurred,” the statement concluded.

No information has yet been provided about the suspect, motive or how many shots were fired.

The shooting took place during homecoming weekend, known as “America’s Greatest Homecoming.”

Tens of thousands were in town to watch the Oklahoma State Cowboys take on the Cincinnati Bearcats at the nearby T. Boone Pickens Stadium, just a stone’s throw from the scene of the shooting.

This year’s celebration was particularly poignant, marking the 10th anniversary of the 2015 homecoming parade attack.

That year, four people were killed and 47 were injured after Adacia Avery Chambers deliberately drove her car into a crowd watching the parade.
