‘We got ‘em.’ The major break in the Brown University shooting that led police to the suspect

The man authorities believe committed the deadly shooting at Brown University was found dead inside a Salem, New Hampshire, storage unit, authorities said Thursday night.

Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, a 48-year-old former Brown graduate student and Portuguese national, was also believed to have killed a renowned physics professor this week near Boston.

Providence Police Chief Col. Oscar Perez said the suspect, whose last known address was in Miami, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound and acted alone, “as far as we know.”
