The Chester County district attorney said there may have been multiple shooters at the homecoming celebration. One person alleged to have a gun was in custody, the DA said. One person is dead and at least six others were wounded in a shooting amid homecoming festivities Saturday night at Lincoln University, one of the nation’s first historically Black colleges, authorities said. One person alleged to have a gun has been taken into custody, Chester County District Attorney Chris de Barrena-Sarobe said at an overnight news conference on campus. He said it was possible someone else may have opened fire as well, but investigators are still trying to piece together what happened. “There’s some evidence that leads us to believe that that is a viable theory right now,” he said. The DA did not provide details about a potential motive or what precipitated the gunfire. Local, state and federal law enforcement officials are investigating, he said. The extent of injuries for the six surviving victims was not immediately available. The attack broke out before 9:30 p.m. after crowds exited a homecoming football game and gathered outside the school’s International Cultural Center, de Barrena-Sarobe said.
