As authorities continue to search for a suspect in a Monday night shooting on the Michigan State campus that left at least three people dead and five injured, the school announced the cancellation of all campus activities, including athletics, scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Speaking to reporters at a news conference while some of the East Lasing, Mich., campus and area residences were in lockdown, interim deputy police chief Chris Rozman said calls of a shooting first came in at 8:18 p.m. local time.

According to Rozman, shootings took place at two buildings, with victims being found in both. The first shooting was at Berkey Hall, a classroom building, and the second took place at the university union.

Shortly after the shooting, the university posted the following alert at the top of its website:

“MSU Police reports a shooting has occurred at the East Lansing campus. This is an active and ongoing situation. Secure-in-Place immediately. Run, Hide, Fight. Run means evacuate away from danger if you can do so safely, Hide means to secure-in-place, and Fight means protect yourself if no other option.”

As Rozman announced the cancellation of on-campus activities, the MSU Police and Public Safety Department tweeted the following message:

“All campus activities are canceled for 48 hours, including athletics, classes, and all campus-related activities. Please DO NOT come to campus tomorrow.”

According to the university’s website, more than 50,000 students are enrolled at Michigan State.

Among the athletic events scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday are a men’s basketball game vs. Minnesota and a men’s tennis match against Drake. The Spartans women’s basketball team is scheduled to play at Purdue on Wednesday.

As of Monday night, there was no word on whether the women’s basketball game will be impacted, nor any indication if the men’s basketball and men’s tennis games will be rescheduled.

There are no Michigan State athletics events scheduled for Tuesday.
