At least 2 killed and several more hurt in shooting at Brown University in Rhode Island

Published Sat, Dec 13 20254:56 PM ESTUpdated 7 Min Ago

At least 2 people were killed and several more injured in a shooting in the area of Brown University on Saturday, a law enforcement official said, as the Ivy League school issued an active shooter alert and urged students and staff to take shelter during the second day of final exams.

Police did not immediately release details about the number of victims, their conditions or the circumstances of the shooting. The official who gave the tally of at least two dead could not publicly discuss details of the ongoing investigation and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity.

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.

Just as the midterm election cycle starts to ramp up. Media is in full-blown breaking news mode. Dems will be calling for gun control any day now and mocking prayer, all so they can improve their odds of winning the midterms.

Excerpt:
It’s the kind of news that stops you cold—shots ringing out on a college campus, leaving two dead and eight fighting for their lives. That’s the horror that unfolded Saturday afternoon at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, when a gunman in all black burst into the Barus & Holley engineering building around 4:05 p.m. and opened fire. The suspect, described only as a male dressed in black, fled on foot down Hope Street after the attack, which happened after hours but possibly during high traffic from final exams.



It’s too bad they won’t use the media better than that.

How is that the only description after over two hours? How bad is the university build security cameras?

Multiple people shot after active shooting at Brown University
 
A gunman killed two students and seriously wounded at least nine other people Dec. 13 in a mass shooting at Brown University's campus in Providence, Rhode Island, sparking a search for the killer that extended into Sunday.

The shooting at the Ivy League University happened shortly before 4:05 p.m. in an engineering building with unlocked doors as final exams were underway. "Based on what we heard from officials at Brown, anybody could have accessed the building at that time," Mayor Brett Smiley said.
 
"Sadly, today is a day that the city of Providence and the state of Rhode Island prayed would never come," Smiley said. "We've heard about horrific acts of gun violence and active shooter situations in other places, but not here."

"We've heard about horrific acts of gun violence and active shooter situations in other places, but not here."

A rather smug attitude.  Being a big Ivy League school, I'll bet it supported defunding the police.

Someone didn't want to take their final exam.

🚨 BREAKING: A person of interest has been taken into custody in the Brown University shooting, according to Providence Mayor Brett Smiley

Brown University shooting suspect is ARRESTED after 14 hours on the run as two killed and 9 injured on campus

Daily Mail

14 December 2025



A person of interest is in custody after two people were killed and multiple were injured in a mass shooting at Brown University in Rhode Island yesterday evening.

Police confirmed one person is in custody, as of 6am Sunday morning. Mayor Brett Smiley said that the people of Providence should breathe a 'small sigh of relief' today.

The first 911 call reporting shots fired at Brown's prestigious engineering building was made at 4.05pm on Saturday afternoon, in the midst of students' end of semester exam season.

Late on Saturday night, police released a short clip of a person of interest walking as he turns the corner on Waterman Street.

The same man in the video - wearing a full black outfit - was detained amid a flurry of police activity around 3am at a hotel in Coventry, Rhode Island, CNN reports.

It was at that unnamed hotel that the suspect was arrested. 

Terrified students at the Ivy League school were made to shelter in place for hours overnight. That has now been lifted, as of 7am Sunday morning.

Mayor Smiley confirmed at a press conference at 7am on Sunday that there will be an enhanced police presence in Providence today for the 'comfort and reassurance of our community' as the investigation continues.

That is simply made up.  Maybe prestigious to the people of Rhode Island, but the engineering school does not crack the top 50 in US rankings.

I wonder what else is made up in the article?

🚨 HOLY CRAP! A reporter just PUMMELED the President of Brown University for having NO ANSWERS on the mass shooting

REPORTER: “President, with all due respect, SIX HOURS after the shooting, and you DON’T KNOW what was going on in that classroom??! How does that happen? Were they taking an exam? Was it a club?”

PRES: “I don’t know.”

REPORTER: “Six hours later, you’re the President, and you don’t know. That’s kind of concerning.”

Yet ANOTHER DEI university president.

Well one thing is certain:  it’s the most prestigious thing inside that school, or any school.

I’m a bit biased, but I’ve become convinced that most college now is useless.  Only serious sciences have real usage, and some of the more general, traditional social studies (sciences?  lol), but not Oppressed Blacks Studies, and Put-Upon Women’s Studies, and not Art (which including my art-teacher cousin, is tried to be forced into the STEM nonsense as it is, as STEAM as if art people really ever have anything to do with serious science and math).

Police now have a suspect in the mass shooting at Brown University but are refusing to provide the suspect’s age, race, or motive, only stating that the shooter “yelled something” before the attack and that the weapon used has a “unique characteristic” on it.

STEM is just about the only way to go if the student wants to make enough money to pay back the huge student loans these days.  Those trash Majors will never pay off!  Juris Doctorates are an exception, and Trade Schools.

More about the Jewish professor whose students were targeted: https://www.oceanstatemedia.org/politics/brown-professor-says-shooting-broke-out-at-review-session-for-her-class-final

Rachel Friedberg, a Brown University economics professor, said Saturday’s mass shooting at the school happened at a review session for the final exam of her Principles of Economics course.

Friedberg said she was not present during the shooting. The session was led by her teaching assistants, she said, one of whom alerted her. ...

I'm sure it's pointless to ask the overpriced "President" about what the shooter yelled prior to opening fire.  Probably "Happy Hanukkah."

14 Colleges Fail in StopAntisemitism's 2025 Annual Report: Majority of Jewish Students Feel Unwelcome on Certain Campuses

Campus hostility forces Jewish students to hide identities, according to the StopAtisemitism 2025 annual report.

Catherine Armecin Martin  |  Updated 09 December 2025, 12:25 AM GMT

A damning new report has found that thousands of Jewish students in the United States experience hostility on campus, with a significant number feeling compelled to hide their religious identity to avoid harassment. The annual report, released by the non-profit organisation StopAntisemitism, gave 14 universities a failing grade.

The schools, which include elite institutions such as Harvard, Yale, and Columbia, were cited for failing to establish or enforce disciplinary actions against antisemitic behaviour. The report paints a grim picture of American higher education, suggesting a systemic failure to protect Jewish students.

14 Universities with 'F' Grade
StopAntisemitism surveyed 90 schools across the country, with its findings representing a formal verdict on the inadequacy of administrative responses to escalating anti-Jewish activity. Fourteen colleges received an 'F' grade for failing to take action against students and staff who engage in antisemitic remarks or behaviour.

The universities that received the 'F' grade include Columbia University, The New School, Harvard, Yale, Brown, University of Pennsylvania, MIT, Northwestern, UC Berkeley, the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), University of Oregon, University of Washington, Pomona College, and Portland State University.  .  .  .

I think that's a fair assessment.  We all have a pretty good guess of what was yelled by the shooter.
