A gunman killed two people and injured nine others after opening fire at Brown University's engineering and physics building in Providence, Rhode Island, on Saturday, officials said.

The unidentified gunman left after the shooting at the Barus & Holley building, on the eastern edge of the campus, Commander Timothy O’Hara, deputy chief of Providence police, said Saturday night.

People in the area were advised to shelter in place amid an active manhunt.

A spokesperson Brown University Health, which operates Rhode Island Hospital, where the injured were being treated, said seven people remained in critical condition and one had been stabilized. An 11th victim was identified hours after the shooting, and had non-life-threatening injuries from fragments, officials said.
