One person was fatally shot inside a hospital at Virginia Commonwealth University early Wednesday morning, authorities said.
The man was found dead inside a stairwell at VCU Medical Center North Hospital after an apparent altercation with another man, the suspected shooter, who was then located and taken into custody by police, CBS affiliate WTVR reported. Neither the suspect nor the victim have been identified.
A preliminary investigation indicated that an altercation broke out between the two men inside a stairwell, culminating in one of them shooting the other, authorities told WTVR. No one else was involved in the shooting, and no additional injuries were reported, according to the station.

President Donald Trump's firings at the Department of Health and Human Services included the entire office that sets federal poverty guidelines, which determine whether tens of millions of Americans are eligible for health programs such as Medicaid, food assistance, child care, and other services, former staff said.
