    At scene of Auburn apartment shooting, students somber and concerned, but few details available (gallery)



    AUBURN, Alabama -- Detectives were still gathering evidence this morning as steady rain began to fall at the scene of a shooting at an apartment complex in a popular student neighborhood.
    Auburn police issued no official statement, but confirmed there was a shooting with multiple victims at the University Heights apartment complex at 202 West Longleaf Drive.

    [Earlier: Shooting at Auburn apartment complex reported ]

    Dozens of police cars, ambulances and fire trucks descended on the front of the complex late Saturday. One onlooker said he said a saw a body covered by police. Officers later put a tent around the crime scene to shield the view and protect the scene from rain. Evidence markers were placed throughout the parking lot.
    The shooting appeared to take place directly in front of the apartment's office or clubhouse. Detectives combed through bushes and parking lots looking for evidence, aided by bright lights brought in by the fire department.
    For several hours, even residents of the complex weren't allowed to enter. Eventually, police directed residents to park at a retail lot near College Street and walk to the apartments. They were escorted into the gates by police after their IDs were checked.
    Many curious onlookers gathered to watch from the sidewalk. Some were apparent witnesses. Police took down statements and information from several people.
    One man who seemed intoxicated was arrested at about 2 a.m., but it did not appear to be related to the shooting.
    Police are expected to release an official statement later this morning. Police chief Tommy Dawson was at the crime scene. He has not confirmed the names of any victims nor given any information about a possible suspect.
