A person of interest who was earlier detained in connection with the Dec. 13 shooting at Rhode Island’s Brown University, which left two people dead and nine others wounded, have been released, authorities said on Dec. 14.
Following the arrest of this individual earlier Sunday—which was captured by news outlets who were on site—evidence “now points in a different direction,” Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha told reporters at a 10:45 p.m. press conference.
