5 people were injured at the University of California’s Merced campus today, after being stabbed by an unnamed assailant. Police confirm that the suspect is now dead after they shot him, however.

Two of the victims were transported by helicopter to a local hospital, and the other three were treated on campus. All victims were conscious, and are said to be pulling through.

The campus has been closed for the day and all classes canceled.

Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved!
