Authorities have identified Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, a forty-eight-year-old former Brown student and Portuguese national, as the suspect in the recent shootings at Brown University and MIT. Valente, who had withdrawn from Brown in 2003, reportedly took his own life in New Hampshire. The incidents resulted in the tragic death of an MIT professor and injuries to several individuals at Brown. Valentes last known address was in Miami, and he was found deceased with two firearms.

Valente was discovered dead in a storage facility in Salem, New Hampshire, from what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The suspect was linked to an incident at Brown University where two students were killed and nine others wounded in an engineering building classroom. Authorities believe the shooter entered and exited through a door facing a residential street, which might explain why campus cameras did not capture clear footage.
