Possible altercation after a game of dice.

Authorities have reported that one man was killed and three women were wounded during a shooting late Thursday night on the campus of Tennessee State University.
According to preliminary reports, a fight broke out over a dice game before shots were fired.
Officials identified the victim who was killed as 19-year-old Cameron Selmon, of Memphis, who was not a TSU student, while the suspect is still at large. All three of the other victims were aged 18.
One woman was grazed by a bullet but did not seek medical attention, Aaron said. The two other women were transported to Vanderbilt University Medical Center to be treated for non-life threatening injuries, said university spokesman Emmanuel Freeman.
It wasn’t clear whether the shooter, who fled the scene, was a student, though WZTV reported police don’t believe the gunman was enrolled at the university.
Local news outlets reported that several students used their phones to record the physical altercation prior to the barrage of gunshots, and while police have obtained some video, they are currently tracking down additional leads.
The incident comes just over a week after three people were wounded by gunfire at an off-campus party across the street from the college.
One of the victims suffered a gunshot wound to the head but is expected to recover, reported USA Today. The gunman involved in that shooting is also still at large and an investigation is ongoing.
