campus sign and building — Central Michigan University students are on spring break this week. The campus went into lockdown Friday after two people were shot and killed in a dorm.

The campus of Central Michigan University is quiet today for a very different reason than it was at the end of last week. Students are on spring break, but on Friday the campus in Mt. Pleasant went into lockdown after word spread that a gunman had killed two people in a campus dorm.

James Eric Davis Jr., 19, is accused of shooting his parents James Davis Sr. and Diva Davis. Police eventually arrested Davis Jr. early Saturday morning.

Michigan Radio's Steve Carmody was on campus covering the story. He spoke with "Morning Edition" host Doug Tribou.
