One person is dead and three are injured after a shooting on the Tennessee State University campus Thursday night. 

Authorities say a dispute over a dice game led to the shooting on the Nashville campus. The 19-year-old man who was killed was not a student at the school. 

The three students injured were all women and simply passing by when the incident occurred. None of the injuries were life threatening. 

The school was still on lockdown Friday morning, and classes were canceled as authorities continued to look for the shooter.
