AUGUSTA, Maine >> The campus of a liberal arts college in Maine was on a temporary lockdown early Saturday after a shot was fired in a student housing complex during what one student called a massive annual party.
Colby College said no students were hurt during an altercation that involved a firearm being discharged at the Alfond Senior Apartments on the campus in Waterville, Maine.
No Colby students were injured. The suspect is a 24-year-old Waterville man not affiliated with the college. Police were continuing to look for others involved.
Police did not perceive imminent danger to the campus community but asked students to stay in place throughout the night.
The lockdown was lifted later Saturday morning, the school said. An email sent to the student body by interim Dean of the College Barbara Moore said the Waterville Police Department “have a person in custody who attended events there and fired a gun.”
