BATON ROUGE, La. - Two Indian doctoral students were found shot dead in an apparent home invasion in a university campus apartment, and police Friday were searching for three suspects.
The victims, Chandrasekhar Reddy Komma and Kiran Kumar Allam, were found inside an apartment at the Edward Gay complex on the campus of Louisiana State University late Thursday night after authorities received a call from Allam's pregnant wife requesting urgent medical aid.
Both men had been shot once in the head, said Charles Zewe, an LSU spokesman. Three men seen leaving the area were being sought, he said.
"From what we're being told, Komma was bound with a computer cable and shot," Zewe said. "The other man was found near the door."
Allam's wife called authorities after returning home and finding the men dead, said Srinivasa Pothakamuri, a friend of Komma's. Komma, a biochemistry student, was visiting the apartment. Allam was in the chemistry program.
Pothakamuri said Komma's wife contacted his wife Thursday night, worried that her husband had not returned after what he had said would be a 10-minute trip to see Allam. "He never came home," Pothakamuri said. They went to the apartment and saw police.
