An Ohio State student was shot near campus, according to the Columbus Division of Police.

At around 3:51 p.m., a shooting was reported near the 1400 block of North High Street. The victim, an Ohio State student, was then transported to the Wexner Medical Center and is in stable condition. A second victim, possibly related to the incident, self-transported themselves for treatment.

University spokesperson Ben Johnson said in an email that the student was struck in the leg by a stray bullet.

“We have reached out to offer the student any support needed. The incident occurred off campus, and we will assist the CPD investigation in any way possible,” Johnson said.

This is a developing story. It will be updated as more information is released.
