1 shot at SDSU, 2 suspects in custody; police looking for third party

San Diego State University canceled classes and activities Thursday afternoon after a shooting on campus.

One person was injured, according to San Diego police. The man was transported to a local hospital the university said.

Just before 5 p.m., police responded to a report of a shooting at the MTS station on campus, San Diego Police Capt. Adam Sharki said.

“There was a huge response from the San Diego Police Department and the SDSU University Police Department,” he said. “They found one person who had suffered a gunshot wound.”

The injured person was found at the corner of Hardy Avenue and Campanile Drive. Sharki said part of the investigation is looking at how the injured person got there.

Campus police said there are two suspects in custody, including the alleged shooter, and they are looking for a third.

A firearm was recovered, Sharki said, and it appears to be an isolated incident.

“Officers are still looking into possible leads,” Sharki said. “We are looking for witnesses. We are looking for video footage.”

Anyone with information was asked to call 911.

SDSU student Jerisa Maglanoc was sitting on a bench at Campanile Mall at the corner of Hardy and Campanile when the shooting occurred.

“We heard two gunshots, just a pop, pop and we see this kid riding his bike – these two people and then he turns around and starts screaming, ‘S—, s—, s—, s- –‘, and they start biking this way, he starts seeing a group of people running and someone shouts a gunshot,’ she said. “And so I’m with my friend… so we’re running into the pharmacy… all we see is people running en masse.”

Maglanoc said it sounded like a smaller firearm. She said that being from Los Angeles, she has experienced something like this before, so she doesn’t feel unsafe on campus.

“As a student on campus, I felt safer because the police got there so quickly,” she says. “You could literally hear the sirens immediately… I think their response was very quick, very immediate.”

The campus community was advised to stay indoors until 7:35 p.m., but the university did not issue the all-clear as of 7:45 p.m.
