3:12Now PlayingA shooting at a University of New Mexico dorm killed a 14-year-old boy, wounded a 19-year-old and prompted the evacuation of hundreds of students and a campuswide search for the suspect, who has since been taken into custody.
University officials lifted a shelter in place order late Friday afternoon, saying there was still an active investigation and that the main campus in Albuquerque would remain closed. They said students were allowed to eat at the dining hall and return to their dorms but otherwise should avoid the crime scene.
New Mexico State Police Chief Troy Weisler said officers took 18-year-old John Fuentes into custody.
Four people, including the suspect, were playing video games inside a dorm room belonging to one of them when the shooting began, John Silva, chief of the University of New Mexico Police Department, said at a news conference.
The 14-year-old was fatally shot and the others fled the room, Weisler said. A 19-year-old male sought treatment at a hospital and said he was shot on campus.
Authorities were investigating why the suspect fired a gun, Weisler said.
