Colleges Reeling from Death of 2 Students

MISSISSIPPI STATE -- John Sanderson was one of two college students whose lives ended in violence this past weekend, according to news reports. Both died in unrelated shootings.

Sanderson was found dead Saturday outside the male dormitory Evans Hall at Mississippi State University in Starkville. He was 21 years old, and so are two of his suspected assailants.

Jackson residents Mason Perry James and Duntae Harvey have been charged with capital murder. Perry was charged Monday morning; Harvey turned himself later Monday and was charged. Police still are searching for a third suspect in the shooting death, according to WLBT News in Jackson.
