North Carolina Central University police shot and killed an armed man late Monday after the gunman exchanged bullets with officers, according to reports.

A lockdown was issued for the campus and surrounding area approximately at 10:15 p.m. to ensure the safety of the university community. No students were harmed. The lockdown was lifted at 1:09 a.m.

“I applaud the NCCU Police for their responsiveness and vigilance in keeping our campus safe,” said Chancellor Dr. Debra Saunders-White in an open letter to the campus community. “NCCU is committed to supporting our community during this time.”

The suspect fired a shotgun at an officer and then ran into a wooded area after NCCU police moved toward the man on campus. A Durham Police dog traced his position and in a second exchange of gunfire, some 45 minutes later, the man was hit with fatal wounds.

The man’s name was not immediately released but NCCU police said he was not a student.
