On the evening of October 11, 2025, a shooting near the Industrial Technology Building on the Alcorn State University campus in Lorman, Mississippi, left 29-year-old Brekyra Fisher dead and two others wounded. Fisher, a Black woman from Vicksburg, was pronounced dead at the scene by the Claiborne County Coroner after officers found three people with gunshot wounds at about 6:30 p.m. during the university’s homecoming weekend.

The university issued a campus-wide shelter-in-place alert as law enforcement secured the area. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation took charge of the probe, collecting evidence and interviewing witnesses. Within days investigators arrested 26-year-old Taevion Doss; he was booked into the Jefferson County Jail and charged with murder, two counts of aggravated assault, and possession of a weapon on school property. The investigation remains ongoing.

If anyone witnessed the shooting near the Industrial Technology Building or has information about that evening, please share what is known.
