At least six people were hurt after a shooting at Florida State University in Tallahassee, a hospital official said.
The university cancelled classes for the day and ordered students to shelter in place. Alerts sent to students said a shooter was near the university's student union, where students gather to eat, grab coffee or shop at the bookstore.
A spokeswoman for Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare said one person was in critical condition and five were in serious condition.
Police said they were working to secure the campus.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is at the university, U.S. Attorney General Pamela Bondi said.
