A student was shot and killed Friday outside an on-campus dormitory at South Carolina State University, and police were looking for four men who left campus. Brandon Robinson, 20, died not long after he was shot outside of the Hugine Suites around 1:30 p.m., authorities said. The gunmen left campus before police could catch them, but authorities decided to lock down the campus so they could not return, said University Police Chief Mernard Clarkson.
