The shooting initially happened around 10:38 p.m. at the intersection of James P Brawley Drive southwest and Beckwith Street southwest. Police say they found two victims with gun shots wound and another one was grazed. Some students were unable to leave due to the dorms being listed as crime scenes.
The victims who suffered the injuries were taken to the hospital all while conscious and still breathing, per WSB-TV. Police are saying the investigation is still ongoing. CAU is one of the most notable schools in the Atlanta area and one of the most popular HBCUs in the country.
