LOWER OXFORD TWP, Pa. (WPVI) — A judge has increased the bail for the man arrested after the mass shooting at Lincoln University over the weekend to $1 million.
Zecqueous Morgan-Thompson, a resident of Wilmington, Delaware, has been charged with carrying a concealed firearm without a license.

Chester County District Attorney Chris de Barrena-Sarobe said Tuesday that the bail was increased after a fired cartridge casing was found to be a ballistics match to the Glock pistol Morgan-Thompson was allegedly carrying the night of the shooting.
De Barrena-Sarobe said investigators cannot yet say if bullets from that gun struck any of the victims.
Morgan-Thompson is not facing additional charges at this time, though the D.A. noted that the investigation is ongoing.
The shooting happened amid homecoming celebrations on Saturday night outside the International Cultural Center following the school’s football game.
Jujuan Jeffers, 20, of Wilmington, Delaware, died shortly after midnight after being shot in the head.
Six other people were wounded and all are expected to survive.
Authorities have said they believe that there was more than one shooter. However, investigators don’t think this was a planned shooting, but rather that the violence erupted spontaneously.
Authorities are asking anyone with information to contact 1-800-CALL-FBI.
A vigil was held on Monday, as classes were canceled for a day of reflection. Classes resumed Tuesday.
