One student was shot to death and three others were wounded overnight at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff when a quarrel turned violent in a parking lot outside a residence hall.
KPNX-TV reports that the alleged gunman, freshman Steven Jones, 18, was taken into custody by the first police officer who arrived on the scene the 1:20 a.m. shooting. Jones did not resist.
The dead student was identified by Northern Arizona University as Colin Brough. The three wounded men — Nicholas Prato, Kyle Zientek and Nicholas Piring — were being treated at Flagstaff Medical Center. Their conditions were not immediately available.
Police say the attack began as a confrontation between two groups of students. When it became physical, Jones allegedly pulled a gun and opened fire.
The shooting occurred in a parking lot near Mountain View Hall, where most of the school's fraternity members are residents.
Northern Arizona president Rita Cheng issued a statement Friday morning about the incident.
