A spokeswoman for Michigan State University confirmed to the Detroit News that at least one person has died in the fires reported earlier at two locations on the East Lansing campus, according to the newspaper’s online edition.

MSU University Police tweeted about “injuries” and urged students and staff to “take shelter where you are” as a heavy police force was deployed to the scene.

Shots were fired at two locations on campus, near the Berkeley Hall building and the IM East gymnasium.

The borough of East Lansing, home to several colleges near the state capital Lansing, said on Twitter that the person who opened fire has not been arrested and is on foot.

No episode details have been released yet. The university police spoke of a gunman, confirming the municipality’s information that he remains at large and is on foot.

As many as 50,000 students attend MSU’s public state university, especially the East Lansing campus.

Police said they have the gym under control.
