A nineteen-year-old Kansas State University student who was injured when he accidentally shot himself Sunday could face charges for the incident.

Campus officials say campus police are investigating criminal charges against the student, whose name has not been released. They note that the University's policy bars possession of firearms in residence halls.

The University says campus police were called shortly after 8:00 p.m. to a student's room in Goodnow Hall. When they arrived, they determined the student was injured by a gunshot.

The student is reportedly in stable condition.

The University says there is no threat to the university.

Kansas State University's Office of Student Life and Counseling Serves are offering counseling and assistance to students and employees.
