University of Kentucky student killed in South Korea Halloween crowd surge, school says

University of Kentucky student Anne Gieske was among the more than 150 people killed when a huge Halloween party crowd surged into a narrow alley in a nightlife district in Seoul, South Korea, the school said Sunday.

Gieske was a nursing student in her junior year, University of Kentucky President Eli Capilouto said in a letter to the community. Gieske was from Northern Kentucky and had been studying abroad in South Korea for the semester, Capilouto said.  

Two other UK students and a faculty member who are in South Korea are safe, Capilouto also said.
