BREAKING: New Surveillance Video Released as Search for Brown University Shooter Continues
Authorities have released new surveillance footage as the urgent manhunt for the Brown University shooter enters a critical phase, intensifying pressure on law enforcement and heightening public concern across Providence, Rhode Island.
The newly released video, made public by Providence Police and federal authorities, shows a person of interest believed to be connected to the deadly campus shooting. The individual is seen walking near Brown University hours before gunfire erupted, wearing dark clothing, a face covering, and a hat — details that investigators say may be key to identifying the suspect.
Police are urging residents, students, and business owners to carefully review the footage and report any information that could assist the investigation.
What the New Video Reveals
According to officials, the video footage was obtained from nearby surveillance cameras in residential areas surrounding the Brown University campus. While the suspect’s face is partially obscured, investigators believe the person’s movement patterns, clothing, and timing may help narrow down leads.
Law enforcement agencies have emphasized that the individual in the video is not yet officially identified as the shooter, but is considered crucial to the ongoing investigation.
Manhunt Remains Active
The search for the Brown University shooter remains active after police confirmed that a previously detained individual was released due to insufficient evidence linking them to the attack. This development prompted authorities to expand the scope of the manhunt and release additional visual evidence to the public.
Local, state, and federal agencies — including the FBI — are now conducting door-to-door canvassing in Providence neighborhoods, collecting additional surveillance footage and interviewing potential witnesses.
Officials continue to warn that the suspect should be considered armed and dangerous.
Reward Offered for Information
To accelerate the investigation, authorities have announced a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest, and conviction of the shooter. Tips can be submitted anonymously through law enforcement hotlines and official online portals.
Police stress that even small details — such as recognizing clothing, walking patterns, or locations shown in the video — could prove vital.
Campus and Community on Edge
The shooting occurred during a tense period on campus as students were preparing for final exams. Brown University has since increased security measures, including enhanced police patrols, controlled access points, and expanded mental health support services for students and staff.
University officials expressed gratitude for the rapid response of emergency services and reaffirmed their commitment to campus safety.
Investigation Ongoing
As the investigation continues, authorities are urging the public to remain vigilant, avoid spreading unverified information, and rely only on official updates. The release of the new video marks a significant step in the case, signaling renewed momentum in efforts to track down the suspect.
Anyone with information related to the Brown University shooting, the newly released surveillance video, or the suspect’s identity is strongly encouraged to contact law enforcement immediately.
This is a developing story, and updates are expected as new information becomes available.
