PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — A shooting in the engineering building at Brown University on the second day of final exams left at least two people dead and eight injured and in critical but stable condition Saturday, Providence’s mayor said. The Ivy League school issued an active shooter alert and urged students and staff to take shelter.

University officials initially told students and staff that a suspect was in custody, before later saying that was not the case and that police were still searching for a suspect or suspects, according to alerts issued through Brown’s emergency notification system
