Police Release New Video in Brown University Shooting as Detained Person Is Set for Release

The probe has shifted to public appeals following the release of new surveillance footage.

Overview

  • Authorities said two students were killed and nine others were wounded in the Barus & Holley engineering and physics building during end-of-term exams.
  • Investigators released low-resolution clips showing a person in dark clothing whose face is not clearly visible and urged the public to share tips.
  • Officials said a person of interest detained on Sunday will be released for lack of evidence, and the search for the gunman continues with FBI and ATF support.
  • Police reported more than 40 rounds were fired, consistent with a 9 mm pistol, and recovered two loaded 30‑round magazines at the scene.
  • Brown canceled exams, issued shelter-in-place alerts, and expanded support services, while roughly 400 officers canvassed the area and surrounding neighborhoods.
