Seven people injured in shooting near Norfolk, Virginia college campus

Seven people, including several college students, were hospitalized after shooting nearly Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia early Sunday, authorities said.

Norfolk cops responded at around midnight to a call for a shooting on the 5000 block of Killiam Avenue, less than a mile from the campus, officials said.

Two of the seven sustained “life-threatening” injuries, police said.

“Several” of the victims are students at Norfolk State University on the opposite end of town, the school said on Twitter early Sunday morning.

The school’s tweet referred to the shooting as an “isolated off-campus” incident.
