Three people were shot and injured on the Towson University campus early Saturday morning, Baltimore County police and school officials said.

The injuries are non-life-threatening, the statement said. The victims have not been identified and it is unclear whether they are students, police said.

“At this time, the scene is secure; however, we’re encouraging everyone, including all students, to remain away from the academic part of campus as police activity is ongoing,” said the statement, signed by university President Kim Schatzel and Vice President for Student Affairs Vernon Hurte.
