A suspect is in custody after a shooting near Stockton University in Galloway Township , New Jersey, prompted a shelter-in-place order on Thursday, police said.

Police said the suspect was found at a local housing development and was taken into custody without incident.

The shelter-in-place order was in effect due to the police investigation, but that has since been lifted, the university said.

The Atlantic County Sheriff's Office said a woman was shot in the face. She was taken to the hospital and listed in stable condition.

The alert was posted on the university's website around 1:19 p.m. stating, "Shelter in place at Galloway Campus. If outside, seek shelter indoors. Remain inside for your safety. Do not exit until Public Safety issues all-clear."
