SAVANNAH, Ga. - A man suspected of
shooting a fellow student at Savannah State University Friday
was arrested hours later, officials said.
Campus Police Chief Thomas Trawick said
the wounded student knew the suspect and that the shooting
Friday morning happened during a fight between them.
The suspect was identified as
19-year-old Devon McIntosh. A police dog sniffed him out and
officers found him hiding in the trunk of a car on campus.
The wounded student's name has not been
released.
The campus of 3,400 students along
Georgia's coast was locked down but reopened after the gunman
was in custody. A SWAT team briefly surrounded a dormitory.
