Providence, R.I. — Authorities identified a suspect in the Dec. 13 Brown University classroom shooting and this week found the suspect dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot in a New Hampshire storage facility. Investigators are examining whether the same man was connected to the Dec. 15 shooting that fatally wounded MIT professor Nuno Loureiro. Law enforcement officials issued an arrest warrant, searched multiple states, and briefed the public at a news conference. Two Brown students were killed and several others were wounded during the campus attack. Authorities continue processing evidence and interviews. Based on 11 articles reviewed and supporting research.
