East Side Community Offers Comfort and Hope After Brown U. Shooting

Two people died and nine were injured in a Brown University engineering building shooting; FBI Director Kash Patel's public naming of a suspect raised scrutiny after release due to lack of evidence.

  • On Saturday, a shooter opened fire inside Brown University's engineering building, killing two and injuring nine, with no one in custody after 48 hours, prompting a manhunt.
  • FBI Director Kash Patel announced a detained person of interest who was later released for lack of evidence, and Monday he tweeted images of a person of interest that remain online.
  • The FBI announced a $50,000 reward for tips, police released photos and video, and Juliette Kayyem said Patel's disclosures delayed the probe 18 to 24 hours.
  • Despite criticism, Attorney General Pam Bondi defended agents, saying `Every day our FBI agents, and now U.S. marshals working on a task force with Homeland Security are out there keeping Americans safe and getting illegal aliens out of our country`.
  • How the episode intersects with scrutiny over the Jeffrey Epstein files has amplified questions about the bureau, while critics cite the FBI's reassignment of nearly a quarter of agents to immigration enforcement and Patel's earlier retracted social-media claim after Kirk's shooting.
