Three students were killed and five others injured after a gunman opened fire on the Michigan State University (MSU) campus on Monday night.

The victims were all students at the university, police said, and the injured remain in critical condition.

The police said a caller’s tip led them to the suspected gunman, who died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The suspect, who has since been identified, had no ties to MSU.

“We can confirm that the 43-year-old suspect had no affiliation to the university. He was not a student, faculty, or staff, current or previous,” Chris Rozman of the Michigan State University Police said.

Questions still remain about the motive of the gunman, who was identified as 43-year-old Anthony McRae.
