Five victims were transported to E.W. Sparrow Hospital in Lansing, and some of the injuries were life-threatening.
A single shooter is thought to be responsible for the violence and two campus locations. The male shooter, who police say is on foot, remained at large three hours after the gunfire was first reported at Berkey Hall.
Three students were seen hugging and emotional outside. “Everyone was screaming everyone’s names, it was really loud, really hectic, and I couldn’t find her,” one of them told the station.
Late Monday, MSU canceled all campus activities, including athletics and classes, for two days. Students and staff were urged to stay away from campus Tuesday.

Multiple people were reported injured at Michigan State University after shootings at two locations were reported on the East Lansing campus Monday night, university police said.
"Run, Hide, Fight," said an alert sent to students about 8:30 p.m. "Run means evacuate away from danger if you can do so safely, Hide means to secure-in-place, and Fight means protect yourself if no other option."
University police tweeted that shots had been fired near Berkey Hall and that anyone in the area should shelter in place. About 45 minutes later, officials said they were searching for a suspect they believed to be on foot.
Not long after, police said that were reports of a second shooting at IM East and that multiple people had been injured.
IM East is a fitness center and sports complex on campus, according to the MSU website. It’s about 1 mile southeast of Berkey Hall.
Students on campus reported on social media that they were hiding or barricaded as officers fanned out.
The FBI said late Monday it was sending agents to MSU.
This is a developing story.
