Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Shooting and 3 Other Recent Acts of Violence at College Parties

On Sunday, one student was killed and 11 were wounded in a shooting at an Omega Psi Phi fraternity house near the Youngstown State University campus.

Two suspects are in custody and scheduled for arraignment Tuesday.

According to Youngstown, Ohio, police Capt. Rod Foley, the suspects were attending a party at the fraternity house and were asked to leave after a fight broke out. Police say they left and then opened fire into the house.

Youngstown State University provides detailed breakdowns of its campus crime statistics. No murders or manslaughters have been reported since 2005, the earliest date for which statistics are available online.

While such violent acts are relatively rare, there have been some high-profile acts of violence at American college parties in recent years.
