AKRON, Ohio - One person was shot early Sunday while sitting in a vehicle parked in a commuter parking lot south of the University of Akron campus, officials say.

The shooting happened about 2:30 a.m. at the university's Wheeler Lot (parking lot 5), next to Buchtel Field at the corner of Brown and Wheeler streets, a University of Akron public safety advisory states.

A late-model, white Chevy Cobalt pulled into the lot, and its driver got out of the car. The driver approached another vehicle in the lot, pulled out a gun and fired one shot, the advisory says.

The shooting victim was taken to a nearby hospital with a non-life-threatening injury, the advisory states. The victim is not a University of Akron student.

The shooter got back into the Cobalt and pulled out of the parking lot, heading west on Wheeler Street toward Grant Street.

The shooter has not been identified, and no arrests have been made. Anyone with information about the shooting should contact Akron police detectives at 330-375-2490.
