Richmond Police responded to a shooting incident on the campus of Virginia Union University Saturday night, according to NBC12.

Officers arrived around 8:30 p.m. on the 1500 block of Lombardy Street and found an adult male with non-life-threatening injuries, who was taken to a local hospital.

A second adult male transported himself to a hospital and also suffered non-life-threatening injuries, NBC12 reported.

This marks the second shooting at Virginia Union University during Homecoming weekend, following an earlier shooting Tuesday that sent another man to the hospital with a gunshot wound.

Authorities are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact Major Crimes Detective James Higgins or Crime Stoppers.

NBC12 noted heavy police activity at the scene and said the story is developing with updates to come.
