Three injured in college shooting
A man shot three people in a computer room at a Phoenix community college, critically injuring one of them, authorities said. The gunman fled but a suspect was arrested nearby.
The shooting at South Mountain Community College was linked to a dispute between the suspect and one of the victims, police Sgt. Andy Hill said.
“This was not a random shooter going around the campus shooting,” Hill said. Two of the injured were struck by stray bullets, he said. The suspect was identified as Rodney Smith, 22, a former student.
