Over the weekend sheriff’s deputies were called to a house north of the USI campus for a report of shots fired. They learned a female had been shot with non-life threatening injuries. At this time, the victim’s name has not been released by authorities and the investigation is ongoing.
USI can confirm that the home is not a property owned by the University. However, we understand some of our students may have been present in the home. The dean of students is working to identify those students and offer support services. Any student who may need assistance should contact the Dean of Student’s Office.
The safety of our students is of paramount importance. Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to contact the Vanderburgh County Sherriff’s Office.
