“On the first night of homecoming a party got shot up so that was really crazy,” CAU freshman Emma Haselrick told FOX 5. 

“It was a whole bunch of gunshots … it was shot in rounds. Everybody just started running … it was a lot of chaos,” CAU student Jameah Alston told FOX 5 recalled. Alston complained there was not sufficient security on campus for the homecoming events.

CAU’s Police Chief Debra Williams said in a statement: “Unfortunately, our students must travel public streets in going between buildings on a daily basis.  We note that the perpetrators were non-students, yet they have access to these thoroughfares. The safety of our students remains our top priority as we continue to work with the City of Atlanta for solutions to senseless violence impacting innocent students and residents.”
