A man suspected of firing several shots at a student outside a dorm room on the University of Colorado Colorado Springs campus has been arrested, university officials confirmed. The man, who has yet to be identified, was arrested late Tuesday morning after a joint investigation with campus and Co lorado Springs police, UCCS spokesperson Jenna Press confirmed. UCCS is closed for the remainder of Tuesday. No injuries were reported. “UCCS is incredibly appreciative of the CSPD for their collaboration and diligent work in this case,” Press said in an emailed statement to The Gazette. The alleged shooting took place after the man confronted a student outside the Antero Hall dormitory shortly before 10:30 p.m. Monday, officials said. Police say they learned the student was in the process of moving into the dorm when the man confronted them about the way a vehicle was parked, Gazette news partner KOAA reported. The man then opened fire, and the student fled the area. Both CSPD and UCCS police canvassed the area, searching for the man with a drone, but were unable to find him that night. The college campus was placed on a brief lockdown while the area was searched. University police announced a closure of the campus on Tuesday just before 10:30 a.m. Students are not fully on campus this week as winter break continues.
