1 shot at SDSU, 2 suspects in custody; Police are looking for a third party

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

According to the San Diego Police Department, one person was injured. The man was transported to a local hospital, said the university. His condition was unknown.

Shortly before 5 p.m., police responded to a report of a shooting at the Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) station on campus, SDPD Capt. Adam Sharki said.

“There was a massive response from San Diego Police and SDSU University Police,” he said. “They found a 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 into how the wounded person ended up there.

Campus police said two suspects were in custody, including the suspected shooter, and they were searching for a third.

A firearm was recovered, Sharki said, and the shooting appeared to be an isolated incident.

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

Anyone with information was asked to call 911.

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

“We heard two shots, just a bang, bang, 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 riding like this, he sees a lot of people running and someone yells, he shoots,” she said. “And so I'm with my boyfriend…so we run to the pharmacy…all we see is people running in crowds.”

Maglanoc said it sounded like a smaller gun. Since she's from Los Angeles, she said she's 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 here so quickly,” she said. “You could literally hear the sirens immediately… I think their response was very quick, very immediate.”

The campus community was advised to stay indoors for most of the evening, and the university gave the all-clear at 8 p.m
