A gunman shot to death a student and his friend early Wednesday on a university campus in Louisiana, and then fled, officials said. The shooting took place around midnight outside a dormitory at Grambling State University, a historically black public institution in the northern part of the state. Grambling spokesman Will Sutton said the victims were identified as Grambling student Earl Andrews, 23, and his friend Monquiarious Caldwell, 23, both of Farmerville, Louisiana. The Lincoln Parish Sheriff’s Office did not immediately respond to requests for comment, but the shooting reportedly began after an altercation that began inside one of the dorms. “Grambling State University offices are open with normal business hours and students are expected to attend classes as schedule,” the school announced on Twitter.
