Gunfire being exchanged at Pakistani university

Peshwar – Pakistani police say a professor and a student have been killed in an attack by gunmen at a university in the country’s northwest.

Earlier, the police and army were exchanging gunfire with the attackers and several explosions were heard from the area of the Bacha Khan University in the town of Charsadda, located some 35km outside the city of Peshawar.

Pakistani TV stations are broadcasting footage showing heavy military presence at the university, troops rushing in and people fleeing. Ambulances are at the scene and wounded are being taken to hospital.

No one has claimed responsibility for the attack. A Taliban attack on a school in Peshawar in December 2014 killed over 150 people, mostly children.
