— A North Carolina State University student has been cited after a loaded weapon -- possibly a rifle -- accidentally discharged Sunday evening inside an off-campus complex, piercing a shared wall and sending a bullet into an adjoining apartment, police said.

According to police, Christopher Ingram, 21, was cited for discharging a weapon within city limits after the incident, which occurred around 9 p.m. at The Station At Raleigh, a complex located at 1310 Oglethorpe Ave., and a complex geared towards college students.

No injuries were reported from the incident.

A resident who was at the complex told WRAL News that the gun possibly belong to a student athlete, and there is a Christopher Ingram who plays cornerback for NC State.

School officials were not immediately available for comment about the incident.

According to police, no one was inside the apartment where the bullet was fired into.

In photos submitted to WRAL News by a resident, Raleigh police were seen examining what appears to be a high-powered weapon on the balcony of one of the units.

Police did confirm that the weapon belonged to an NC State student.

Investigators said the weapon was confiscated by Raleigh police.

According to the website for the apartment community, the development offers "furnished, cottage-style townhomes, world-class amenities, and a student-centered culture."
