Three people, including a female Colorado State University student, were killed in a shooting near the Fort Collins campus early Thursday.
Police responded to the shooting at an apartment complex at around 2 a.m., Fox31 reported. When officers arrived, they found four people with gunshot wounds. The Coloradan newspaper reported that the suspect was believed to be among the dead.
