SEATTLE (CBSMiami/AP) — A man shot in the abdomen during a demonstration at the University of Washington is in critical but stable condition at a Seattle hospital, authorities said.

Harborview Medical Center spokeswoman Susan Gregg said Saturday morning the man is in intensive care. She says he is 34 years old.
