Authorities said they received reports of a man with a pistol shooting at people. When officers arrived, UNC Charlotte police Chief Jeff Baker said that they were able to quickly take the suspect down.
It was the last day of classes and a concert featuring rapper Wocka Flocka Flame was scheduled for 6 p.m. The university canceled the event following the shooting.
The identity of the deceased victims were not immediately released.
Three of the shooting victims were in critical condition, Baker said, and one person suffered non-life-threatening injuries. It was unclear if the victims or gunman were students, faculty or staff.
The shooting remained under investigation.
The university has more than 26,500 students and 3,000 faculty and staff. It's located northeast of the city center and surrounded by residential areas.
