Columbia Police Investigating Shooting at Copper Beech Townhomes

Two men were taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries, following a shooting earlier today at Copper Beech Townhomes, according to a Columbia Police Department news release.

Columbia police officers were dispatched to the apartment complex at 12:33 p.m., and their investigation indicates the suspect or suspects shot from a vehicle into another vehicle, departmart spokeswoman Latisha Stroer said. 

“I don’t have any names or ages yet of the victims, and we don’t have suspect information yet,” Stroer said.

An MU alert stated that it did not appear any of the shooting victims were MU students and there was no indication of a threat to campus.

The Columbia Police Forensic Evidence Team and Columbia police detectives are continuing to investigate.

The University of Missouri Police Department will post updates to MUAlert.com.
