NORMAL, Ill. (WMBD) — One person was injured after a Sunday night shooting near the Bone Center on the Illinois State University campus.

A text from the university’s police department said the suspect is a slender 5-foot, 10-inch-tall man with an afro and wearing all black, last seen running south from University and College streets.

A spokesman with the university told WMBD that classes will be held as normal.

In another text, the school warned people to stay away from North University and West Locust streets and the Bone Center, as police are still clearing the area. Several police squad cars filled the area, their overhead emergency lights illuminating the darkness.

As of 9:20 p.m., the university said there was no “shelter in place’ order but said the student center remains closed. They have asked anyone who had eyewitness information to contact campus police at ISUPolice@ilstu.edu.

No information as to how many shots, just that anyone near the area should be careful.

“A report of shots fired at Bone Student Center. If you are near this area, take precautions,” the release said.

No further information was made available.

A request for more information from ISU and the Normal Police Department was not immediately returned.

WMBD has a crew on the scene and will update when more information is available.
