AUBURN, Ala. – The police chief in the Alabama university city of Auburn said authorities responded during the night to a report of multiple gunshot victims at an apartment complex, but he released no immediate information as the building dawned Sunday cordoned in yellow tape.
Auburn Police Chief Tommy Dawson told the Opelika-Auburn News that police answered the report of multiple shooting victims on Saturday night but he had no immediate comment on what happened or whether anyone was in custody.
News photographs showed several emergency vehicles had converged overnight around the University Heights apartment complex where reports indicated a number of students who attend Auburn University typically reside.
At dawn Sunday, an Associated Press reporter at the scene said several uniformed law enforcement officers were standing about a disaster relief trailer parked at the building's entrance, which appeared to be a sort of command center, and all was quiet as some bystanders milled about.
An Auburn police dispatcher contacted by The Associated Press said early Sunday she had no immediate information to release. Police did not immediately return repeated telephone messages seeking comment. A local coroner's office also said it had no information on the situation to immediately give out.
