Authorities on Thursday night identified the suspected shooter who killed two students and injured nine others at Brown University and a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology last week.
The suspected gunman was identified as Claudio Nevis Valenti, 48, a Portuguese national whose last known address was in Miami, by Oscar Perez, Jr., the chief of Providence Police. Authorities found Valenti after a license plate reader picked up plates matching a car linked to the suspect.
Law enforcement expert John Miller said on CNN's "The Source" with Kaitlan Collins on Thursday that officials have known the person's identity "for some time." However, the person made a series of moves to evade law enforcement for several days, he added.
