Five Duquesne basketball players were shot Sunday morning and two remain hospitalized, including one in critical condition.

The players were shot after a dance, approximately at 2 a.m. Sunday, university spokeswoman Bridget Fare said in a written statement.

Pittsburgh homicide detectives are investigating the matter along with campus police. The shooter isn't believed to be a Duquesne student, the university said.

"First and foremost, we are concerned about our students and are praying that each of them has a full recovery. We will offer support and services to the victims and their families, as well as to our other students who may have been affected by this tragic incident. This type of situation has never occurred before on Duquesne's campus. The University is cooperating fully with the ongoing investigation," Fare said.

The university said extra campus police officers were assigned to on-campus residences and counseling is being offered for victims and other students.

The names of the victims were not immediately available.

[preppyak]

there have been an unusually high number of off-court incidents this summer involving college b-ball players. Think Georgia and USC come to mind the most...and then this.

and a lot of people are dying there. but this is the sports forum. and as much as i agree w/helping africa, we can't solve that problem. go talk to the UN/our government who seem to be doing jack shit about it.

as to the topic: i hope they get the people that did this. has there been any clear motive mentioned?

[RememberFminus2]
