Gov. Dan McKee (D-RI) expanded safety precautions in Rhode Island schools on Monday, as the state reels from the shooting at Brown University that left two students dead. The governor ordered a sweeping review of school security in both K-12 and higher education.

The FBI was asking for the public's help finding a man "with a stocky build" in connection with Saturday's fatal mass shooting in Providence, Rhode Island.

Last Saturday, two people were killed and nine others wounded at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, after a gunman dressed in black entered the Ivy League school's engineering building during final exams and began firing.

Political leaders in Rhode Island and across the country have offered their condolences to those affected by the mass shooting at Brown University.

An alert sent by Brown University told students to lock doors, silence phones and stay hidden until further notice.

“Physically and emotionally, a school shooting takes your whole life and flips it upside down.”

FBI Director Kash Patel was quick to tout the FBI's role in bringing a person of interest in, but now that person has been released.

At the University of Rhode Island (URI), where final exams are supposed to end this Wednesday, Dec. 17, all in-person exams have been canceled for today, Monday, Dec. 15. Community College of Rhode Island (CCRI) has not yet started final exams, but will hold all classes remote today, Monday, Dec. 15.
