One person is dead and another is in stable condition in custody following an early morning shooting in Aggieville Saturday that also involved a Riley County Police officer.

According to RCPD, a 21-year-old Fort Riley man was shot and killed by a 19-year-old Fort Riley man, in an apparent homicide. Preliminary investigation says the shooting happened around 12:30 a.m. in the 1100 block of Moro Street. The shooting victim was found on the sidewalk, suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. He was later pronounced dead on scene.

The shooting suspect was taken into custody after being shot by an RCPD officer, then transported to Ascension Via Christi in Manhattan, and later to Topeka for further treatment. As per RCPD policy, the RCPD officers directly involved have been placed on paid, non-disciplinary administrative leave.

RCPD says to ensure transparency and an impartial investigation, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation will lead an investigation into both shootings.
