Brown University Shooting Suspect Searched Campus Hours Before Attack, FBI Video Reveals
Along with the video timeline, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has also released a slightly clearer image of the Brown University shooting suspect.
The FBI has released a new video timeline of the Brown University shooting, showing the suspect scouting the area hours before the attack on Saturday. The footage, released by FBI Director Kash Patel, shows a person in dark clothing walking through streets near the engineering building where the shooting occurred.
The manhunt for the gunman, who killed two students and injured nine others, has been renewed after the initial 'person of interest' was released by authorities. The FBI has offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to the suspect's identity.
As the investigation continues, Providence Police are canvassing homes, yards, and dumpsters in search of clues. So far, they have received over 200 tips, but no concrete lead has been found. The university's president, Christina Paxson, has defended Brown's response to the shooting, stating that the campus is equipped with 1,200 cameras.
While the investigation is ongoing, authorities are urging the public to review their camera footage in the area to see if they have any footage that might help identify the suspect. The suspect's face was not visible in the previously released footage, and the only description provided was of his stocky build and height of around 5 feet 8 inches tall.
