A gunman who fired into a vehicle, killing a man and a woman and wounding a teenage girl, has been charged with murder and attempted murder in a shooting police blamed on a domestic dispute.

The violence late Tuesday in a college parking lot locked down the campus for more than an hour as police searched the two buildings of Hazard Community and Technical College in Hazard, in southeast Kentucky, to ensure there was no further danger.

Hazard Police Chief Minor Allen told WYMT-TV the shooting resulted from a dispute between the alleged gunman and a woman who was one of those killed, 20-year-old Caitlin Cornett. He did not say how they or the other victims were related.
