A suspect in the shooting at Brown University, which occurred last Saturday and left two students dead and nine others injured, has been identified and now faces an arrest warrant, following a six-day search that yielded no concrete results, sources close to the investigation reported.

Although authorities have not publicly revealed the identity of the alleged attacker, they confirmed The individual managed to evade police after opening fire inside a classroom in the Barus & Holley building and fleeing into the surrounding streets of Providence, Rhode Island. Criticism of security failures and lack of information: In the days following the attack, police released low-quality surveillance footage of a person of interest, without achieving an immediate identification. Even after several press conferences, details about the progress of the case were limited. Providence Police Chief Oscar Perez admitted midweek that authorities still did not know the identity or whereabouts of the assailant. The situation generated criticism of university security and law enforcement, especially after it was revealed that, despite having more than 1,200 cameras, there were no devices in the exact area where the shooting occurred.

Investigating possible link to MIT crime

Investigators are also analyzing a possible connection between the attack at Brown and the murder of MIT professor Nuno Loureiro, which occurred two days later in Massachusetts. Both campuses are less than 80 kilometers apart, although authorities have not yet confirmed a direct link between the cases.

Victims of the attack

The shooting killed Ella Cook, 19, a sophomore from Alabama, and Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov, 18, a freshman of Uzbek-American descent. The university community remains in mourning as the investigation continues and security measures on campus are reinforced.
