The Brown University shooting suspect is reportedly dead, as per multiple media reports. The suspect is said to have died of a self-inflicted wound. HT.com could not interpedently verify this information and authorities are yet to release a statement.
The Brown University shooting suspect was seen outside a storage unit in the New Hampshire community of Salem, and soon there was heavy law enforcement presence.
Authorities are expected to hold a news conference about the Brown University shooting in about 20 minutes, NBC News reported.
The Brown University shooting on December 13 left two dead and cops launched a manhunt, aided by the FBI. However, it was only after the shooting of MIT professor Nuno Loureiro that cops caught a break.
As per CNN, authorities who were on the Brown University shooter manhunt got a callout from cops investigating the professor's death after he was shot at his Brookline home. They realized that the vehicle of interest was exactly like the one they were looking for.
While the car was of the same kind, the license plates were different, the publication further noted. A witness had given a license plate to authorities who were looking into the Brown University shooting, and when they investigated the car and its past drivers, they were able to identify the same vehicle of interest in Loureiro's killing. Then, the car was tracked down to Salem, New Hampshire.
After a license plate reader flagged the car, law enforcement swarmed the area. They were seen around a storage unit, and law enforcement officials believed that he was inside a particular storage unit. They found an abandoned car there with the same license plate.
Today marks the sixth day of the manhunt, and a law enforcement official told CNN how the suspect was able to evade the long arm of the law during this time. He reportedly planned ahead to avoid surveillance cameras and facial recognition technology, by making himself unidentifiable. Apart from that, the license plates were swapped, as mentioned.
The tactics reportedly are akin to the ones put in place by Luigi Mangione, who shot and killed the UnitedHealthcare CEO in Manhattan.
