MIDWEST CITY, Okla. (AP) — Authorities say police shot and wounded a burglary suspect overnight on the campus of a suburban Oklahoma City college.
Midwest City Police Chief Brandon Clabes says officers responded to a burglary call at a home just south of the Rose State College campus early Monday. Clabes says the suspect ran away from the home and onto the college campus.
Clabes says the officer opened fire after the suspect pointed a handgun at him. The shooting happened at about 4 a.m. west of the Aquatics and Wellness Center.
Clabes says the suspect is in critical condition. No one else was injured.
Rose State College says the campus is safe and secure and will be open Monday, though some parts of campus may be blocked off because of the investigation.
