Campus police responded to reports of a medical situation and determined the student had inadvertently discharged his firearm and there was no ongoing threat to the campus.
Guns are not allowed in Kansas State buildings or residence halls, although a new school policy that goes into effect in July will allow concealed handguns on campus.
There is currently a legislative effort underway to repeal that law and many faculty and student organizations have spoken out against it.
