BATON ROUGE, La. — (UPI) Five students were shot today at Southern University in the wake of student protests on the predominately Negro campus. The sheriff's office said there were no fatalities.
There were few immediate details.
Police had barricaded the entrances to the university campus
and there were reports some new demonstrations were starting behind the barricades.
The shootings occurred about 9 a.m. EST.
Student leaders at Southern had said they would continue to protest student restrictions and personnel practices following a large demonstration on the campus Monday.
The student senate gave a list of demands to President Felton G. Clark who agreed to set up a committee of students and faculty members "within 24 hours" to review the situation.
