In the early hours of Sunday, a mass shooting near Indiana University left nine individuals injured.

Authorities rushed to a scene of chaos shortly after gunshots were reported at a post-event gathering following the “Little 500” college cycling race. When officers arrived on the scene before 12:30 a.m., they encountered several people who had been shot. According to WHTR, nine victims were transported to nearby hospitals, with six of them requiring ambulance services.

The current condition of those injured has not been disclosed by officials.

Eyewitnesses claimed that the shooting stemmed from a confrontation between two women during the event.

Law enforcement continued to investigate the incident on Kirkwood Avenue in Bloomington, Indiana, where the shooting occurred on April 26, 2026. Reports indicated that at least nine individuals were hurt during the early morning incident along this street.

“It started with two women arguing… I didn’t pay it too much mind,” a witness recounted to WHTR. “I assumed the police would handle it. But then I saw one of them reach towards her pant leg and start shooting. At that point, I was already running the other way.”

The Bloomington Police Department have yet to make any arrests in the case.

The incident comes just a week after police identified Shamar Elkins as the suspect in a domestic violence rampage that left eight children dead, and two women shot in Louisiana last week.

Shreveport Police Department Corporal Christopher Bordelon released Elkins’ identity while speaking with reporters near the crime scene Sunday evening, calling the mass shooting a “heinous crime.”

Along with the children, Elkins is accused of shooting the mother of his children, who is expected to survive, as well as another woman who is suffering from life-threatening injuries. A teenage victim also sustained injuries considered non-life-threatening.

According to investigators, the suspect first shot a woman on Harrison Street before traveling to a residence on West 79th Street, where the murders happened.

After fleeing, he allegedly carjacked a man at gunpoint near Linwood Avenue and West 79th Street before officers located the vehicle and initiated a pursuit.

The chase continued into Bossier Parish, where officers confronted the suspect and opened fire, killing him at the scene. Authorities said no officers were injured.
