The individual believed to be the recent fatal violence at Brown University authorities state committed suicide on Thursday evening, as stated by law enforcement.
He was found at a storage facility on Thursday evening, as reported from an enforcement source. The same individual is also believed of killing a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor at a home in the Boston area.
“He ended his own life this evening,” announced the head of the Providence police department during a press conference.
The chief named the individual as Claudio Nevis Valenti, a 48-year-old student at Brown University.
This development comes after a major law enforcement presence at a storage facility in Salem, New Hampshire earlier on Thursday. Witnesses reported seeing numerous armed officers entering the location.
The manhunt for the shooter had restarted on Monday after the attorney general's office announced that a individual detained on Sunday had been let go. This development was admitted to be likely to cause fresh anxiety for the city residents.
Local officials noted that while the letting go was a disappointment, the overall case continued without interruption.
The two students who lost their lives in the shooting have been named by family. They are Ella Cook, a sophomore from Alabama who was served as vice-president for a campus political group, and MukhammadAziz Umurzokov, an Uzbek national in his first year who dreamed of becoming a neurosurgeon.
Authorities are expected to hold a news briefing to provide further details on the suspect's death.
