Early Sunday morning, a shooting broke out during a big fight in Iowa City's nightlife spot near the University of Iowa campus, wounding five people. Including three students, police say multiple victims got rushed to hospitals with gunshot injuries, one in critical condition, the other four stable. No arrests yet, but they've released photos of groups they're calling persons of interest. Offices rolled up on reports of a large brawl near a pedestrian mall packed with bars in restaurants when the shots ring out. Social media videos captured fights erupting outside an outdoor bar, then a scare crowd of dozens scattering in panic. University President Barbara Wilson confirmed the three wounded students and promised support for the whole campus community. Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds called it a senseless act of violence that's rocked the state, and she's offering help with the probe. The university sent out alerts telling students to steer clear of the area, stressing that early investigation shows no signs the students were, targeted, cops are still piecing

it together downtown. This hits close to home for college towns everywhere, stay safe out there, and we'll keep watching for updates as the hunt for those involved, continues. This has been Kansas News Today, powered by AI.
