A midtown shooting that occurred early Friday morning did not involve a Sacramento State student, however the university is looking into whether a campus group hosted the event, according to Laurie Hall, interim news services director at Sac State.

The event was not hosted by a Sac State fraternity, according to Davin Brown, program advisor for student activities.

The shooting, which occurred at the Eastern Star Temple at 2719 K St., left a 24-year-old Ronaldo Llerena wounded; his injuries are “not life-threatening,” according to the Sacramento Police Public Information Office. Llerena was leaning into a car talking with passengers when someone inside the car shot him in the arm and stomach.

Hall said the university is also looking into whether a campus group hosted an event in the area.
