Shooting at Ark. University Kills 2, Wounds 1

CONWAY, Ark.

The head of the University of Central Arkansas said Monday that campus was safe after a shooting left two students dead and a third person wounded.

Police said the killings did not appear to be acts of random violence and that there was no remaining threat on the 12,500-student campus.

Police said they were questioning two people and seeking two others. All four are male and from the central Arkansas area. Police said they were not students.

Police had no motive yet for the shooting.

“It does not seem at this time that it was a random act,” said campus police Lt. Preston Grumbles.

Interim president Tom Courtway, who canceled classes Monday, said, “Our campus is safe.”
