Wingate University

North Carolina’s Wingate University is currently on lockdown, after two people were shot dead and one injured near the campus.

The victims were found at a location along East Wilson Street which runs parallel to the school, and it is not yet known if they are students.

The entire university was put on lockdown at 6:17pm, as members of Union County Sheriff’s Office arrived to comb the area for the gunman or gunmen who have not yet been apprehended. Students are being told to shelter in place until further notice, as well as keep their phones on silent. Our prayers are with everyone and their families!
