Everything is still unconfirmed. However, it seems that 2 are dead. A fight started about ??? I don't know much more from following #auburn.

There is a lot of conflicting info. From what I can tell, there was a shooting with some number wounded and some possibly dead. Auburn FB players were shot.

Two former Auburn players have reportedly been shot to death early Sunday morning in Auburn.
According to KSLA, the shooting took place at University Heights apartment complex and authorities are confirming that there were multiple victims. 
An unofficial report from the Auburn Plainsman, the campus newspaper from Auburn University, has said that former Tigers Ed Christian and LaDarius Phillips have died while former Calhoun County standout and current Auburn Tiger Eric Mack was wounded by a gunshot. No official releases have named the victims or the suspect.
Mack is allegedly in critical condition.
