CNN —A professor and two students were stabbed during a gender studies class at the University of Waterloo in Canada on Wednesday, and one person is in custody, authorities said.
A male suspect walked into a university lecture classroom and stabbed the three victims with a knife, Waterloo Regional Police spokesperson Cherri Greeno told CNN.
It’s unclear whether the suspect is connected to the university or if he personally knew any of the victims.
Greeno said the classroom holds about 20 people and it’s unclear how many students were in the class, a philosophy class on gender studies, at the time of the attack.
All other campus operations will proceed as usual,” the University of Waterloo tweeted Wednesday.
