Statement from the Office of the President


Dear MCC family,

We are deeply saddened that our MCC Flint campus experienced a shooting incident on Saturday, January 10, 2026. As has been reported, an individual sustained a gunshot wound in an isolated event at the Ballenger Field House. We are grateful the victim was quickly transported to the hospital and is receiving medical treatment. The suspect was arrested immediately and is in custody. Neither the victim nor the suspect was a student or employee of MCC. We would like to reassure you that there are no ongoing or known threats to our campus community. Classes and campus activities have resumed as scheduled.
