LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - A memorial service and funeral are planned for a first-year Arkansas Baptist College student who was killed in a shooting near campus last week.

The college says a memorial for 19-year-old Derek Olivier will be held Tuesday at 8 p.m. in the school's Old Main Auditorium.

The school says funeral services will be held Wednesday at St. Nicholas Catholic Church in Lydia, La. The viewing will begin 8 a.m. Wednesday and the service will begin at 2:30 p.m.

School officials say Olivier was changing a tire with two other people Thursday evening when someone started shooting. Police haven't named a suspect or announced any arrests in connection to the shooting.

Little Rock police spokeswoman Sgt. Cassandra Davis didn't immediately return a phone message Tuesday.
