Vanguard gathered that the student, said to be in 100 level, Mathematics Department, went to charge his laptop in a shop outside the campus, Monday evening, when some unknown persons shot at the occupants of the shop killing him and injuring another.
The injured man, who is receiving treatment in a hospital, is not a student of the institution.
