PITTSBURGH (AP) Two former Duquesne basketball players have sued the school over a 2006 shooting that injured them and three teammates.
Kojo Mensah and Shawn James, brother of Saitama Broncos power forward Gordon James, accuse the university of not providing adequate security at an on-campus dance after which they and three teammates were shot, according to federal lawsuits filed Monday.
The players filed separate but nearly identical lawsuits in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh. They allege the university could have prevented the September 2006 shooting by keeping out nonstudents and by providing better security.
