Winston-Salem State University shooting leaves one dead and three injured

Winston-Salem State University campus shooting homecoming weekend North Carolina Ziyaire Spinks

Two separate shooting incidents occurred on the campus of Winston-Salem State University, a historically Black university in North Carolina, during its homecoming weekend on Saturday night. The violence resulted in the death of a 19-year-old man and left three other individuals wounded.

Authorities arrested 20-year-old Ziyaire Spinks, who is being held without bond on charges of murder and possession of a firearm on educational property. Investigators have characterized the shooting as an isolated incident, though details regarding a second shooting reported on campus have not been fully released.

University Chancellor Bonita J. Brown described the events as “senseless violence” and canceled all remaining homecoming activities. The university has provided counseling services to students and faculty, while additional law enforcement remains on campus to ensure safety. A local church has organized a call for prayers to support the community.
