3 killed, 5 wounded in US campus shooting

KABUL (Pajhwok): Three people have been killed and five others wounded after a gunman opened fire on the main campus of Michigan State University, Reuters reported.

The incident took place on Monday night and the hours-long manhunt for the suspect ended with his death, apparently from a self-inflicted gunshot, police said.

The 43-year-old gunman had no known affiliation to the university, and his motive remained a mystery, police said at an early morning news briefing more than five hours after the violence began on the sprawling East Lansing campus, about 90 miles northwest of Detroit.
