## Police seek witnesses and recordings from Perry Street

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Tallahassee police renewed their request Sunday for tips, photographs and video after a shooting near Florida A&M University injured 12 people Saturday night. Detectives were working to identify those responsible. The incident occurred near Perry and Manatee streets, close to Bragg Memorial Stadium, during the university’s homecoming weekend.

The city’s Sunday update said the investigation remained active and no deaths had been reported. It placed the shooting at about 8 p.m. October 24; the initial release had described it as just before 8 p.m. The city encouraged witnesses and others with information to contact the dedicated Perry Street shooting hotline at 850-891-4610 or Crime Solvers at 850-574-TIPS.

## Six remain hospitalized, including one in critical condition

Eleven people sustained gunshot wounds, and another person was injured during the incident. Police counted six adults and six juveniles among those hurt. Chief Lawrence Revell said the youngest victim was 11 years old, according to ABC News. [3](https://abcnews.com/US/12-injured-including-6-children-shooting-florida-university/story?id=137549623)

In its Sunday morning update, police said five injured people had been released from hospital and six remained hospitalized, including one in critical condition, WCTV reported. Those figures account for 11 of the 12 injured. The available update did not give a complete hospital-status accounting, and this report does not assume the remaining person’s disposition.

Police initially reported at least three shooting victims with serious injuries. The Sunday hospital update did not establish a revised total in that category or indicate when the remaining patients might be discharged. [1](https://www.talgov.com/Main/news/6100.aspx)

## Fight preceded gunfire; no arrest announced

The preliminary investigation indicated that a physical altercation preceded the shooting, police said. That finding did not establish the motive or identify who fired. The city cautioned in its initial release that information could change as investigators gathered evidence and interviewed witnesses. [1](https://www.talgov.com/Main/news/6100.aspx)

No arrests had been made as of Sunday morning, the Associated Press reported in its Sunday afternoon update. WCTV also reported that Revell had said no person of interest had been identified at his overnight press conference. Those are time-specific accounts; they do not establish how many people fired weapons.

## Homecoming context and what remains unresolved

The shooting occurred near the stadium following the homecoming football celebration. The university said on social media that the shooting was near its campus and the campus remained safe, the Associated Press reported. That statement does not resolve the circumstances of the off-campus confrontation. [5](https://www.wvlt.tv/2026/10/25/least-12-injured-including-6-children-shooting-near-florida-am-stadium/)

WCTV reported Sunday afternoon that Perry Street appeared to have reopened. Police were still seeking the public’s help, and the verified updates left key questions unanswered, including the identity of the shooter or shooters, the motive and a complete account of the injured people’s recovery. The story remains developing.
