Officers arrived at the scene around 11:00pm Sunday night, where they found a college-age man lying next to a car near the volleyball courts, right next to the dorms.

Officers say he was shot by the suspect following an altercation involving several individuals.

When officers and medical personnel arrived, they attempted life saving measures but the victim died at the scene. 

The suspect is still at large.
