The university was hosting a graduation ceremony for nearby Morris Jeff Community School.
The shooting took place around 11:45 a.m. when NOPD officers working a security detail responded to a call for shots fired in the parking lot of the Xavier University Convocation Center, a NOPD news release said. When officers arrived, they found three gunshot victims — two men and one woman — who were all taken to local hospitals. The woman died at a hospital, the release said.
“There was a fight that broke out between apparently two females,” Goodly said. “Subsequent to this fight, subjects produced weapons, and shots were shot.”
