As I suspected, the tentative report of a second related shooting (at Governor Street) turned out to be unfounded https://lionsmane.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:qrllvid7s54k4hnwtqxwetrf&cid=bafkreihhtw7pqvxyv7ijstpfr57pvub5lohawzei6m2awtarnziexc7e4a

OK (suspect not in custody, according to update from Brown half an hour ago) https://lionsmane.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:qrllvid7s54k4hnwtqxwetrf&cid=bafkreif52v3ad6x7zz6bk5cfpd65jzfipevk7f6l7cgrpzl7pawnnsrm6e

For the sake of transparency, and since the Brown Daily Herald is leading with it: It went out over the scanner earlier that there might be 20 people injured—but it was expressed tentatively and hasn't been confirmed, so we really don't know. Audio here: x.com/tatertotscon...

Brown University says there's a report of another shooting now on Governor Street—adjacent to but not on Brown's campus. Caveat: I heard this go over the scanner, and the person stated it very tentatively in a way that made me think they weren't sure if the report would bear out. https://lionsmane.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:qrllvid7s54k4hnwtqxwetrf&cid=bafkreigvuxzb3i2ojm24t2w5rdje5j7zaig3pycbnom46mksi4tibs2yvy

Brown University now says police do NOT have a shooting suspect in custody and that community members should continue to shelter in place. https://lionsmane.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:qrllvid7s54k4hnwtqxwetrf&cid=bafkreihpe2k4zcgdthovdu3mxwfomktqwfqhm2wnse37skaowovrdviiv4

Brown University is still using the term "active shooter situation" after police have captured one suspect, though perhaps just out of caution.

Emergency scanner says officers are waiting for the all-clear from police to go in and "count the victims" at Brown University shooting.

Emergency scanner says 2 dead inside a Brown University building, and shooter has now been taken into custody, scene now secure.

Brown University says there's an active shooter on campus. Emergency scanner says multiple victims, but unclear how many. Video footage viewed by the Brown Daily Herald "depicted several individuals lying on the ground near the Sciences Library appearing to be assisted by police." Active shooter on campus, Depa...
