Two students
at North Carolina A&T State University died on Sunday after being
shot during a fight at a large party held at an apartment near the
school in Greensboro, police said.
Greensboro police said an unknown suspect fired the bullets
that struck Alisia Dieudonne, 19, a computer science major from
Homewood, Illinois, and Ahmad Campbell, 21, an agriculture and
environmental systems major from Kittrell, North Carolina.
Both students were taken to a local hospital, where they died.
No connection has been found between the students and the
shooter, who was an uninvited guest at the party, police spokeswoman
Susan Danielsen said in an email.
“This incident is extremely disturbing,” university
Chancellor Harold Martin said in a statement. “Violence on or near our
campus is unacceptable.”
The university, which has more than 10,000 students, held a
safety forum and offered counseling services on campus on Sunday. Martin
said the slain students were active in campus activities.
