Two men are believed to be behind the mass shooting near the Indiana University campus in Bloomington that left nine people injured — including five women hit by bullets or fragments, police said Sunday.
Just before the violence erupted at a celebration over the “Little 500” college cycling race on the city’s popular strip of Kirkwood Avenue, a fight had broken out between two women in front of a Five Guys restaurant, Bloomington Police Chief Mike Diekhoff told reporters.

No students were injured, officials said.
