Ammon News - At least two students were killed and nine others injured in a shooting at Brown University on Saturday, officials said, spreading terror across campus as students sat for their final exams.

The shooter remains at large, Providence, Rhode Island, Mayor Brett Smiley (D) said at a news conference.

Seven of the injured victims are in critical condition, six of whom are stable, Rhode Island Hospital said in a statement. An eighth victim is in stable condition, and a ninth has injuries not considered to be life-threatening.

Smiley urged everyone in the vicinity of the Brown campus to shelter in place as law enforcement personnel searched for the gunman. About 400 officers have been dispatched to the campus and surrounding neighborhood, he said.

In a social media post, President Donald Trump said he had been briefed on the shooting and the FBI was on the scene.

Vice President JD Vance also said he was monitoring the situation. “Terrible news out of Rhode Island this evening,” he wrote on X. “We’re thinking of and praying for the victims.”
