Five injured individuals who were brought to the hospital after the deadly shooting at the Michigan State University remain in critical condition, according to Denny Martin, chief medical officer at E.W. Sparrow Hospital in Lansing, Michigan.
Four of those individuals did require surgical intervention to treat their injuries, Martin said at Tuesday’s news conference.
One individual did not, and was taken to the critical care unit.
“Initial reports last evening that the injuries were life-threatening were correct, but there wasn’t a consistent nature — there was a variety of injuries associated with the gunshots that came in,” he told reporters later.
Martin said he’s “proud of everyone” on his team for treating the victims, “amazingly well.”
